This is the emotional moment rescuers pulled a baby from his dead mother's arms after she sacrificed herself to protect him from an earthquake that killed more than 400 people on the Iran-Iraq border.
The woman was found holding the baby in the rubble of a building in Kermanshah, western Iran, where 432 people were killed and nearly 8,200 people injured.
After the video appeared on local media today, three days after the earthquake struck, people paid tribute to the bravery of the mother.
