  "account": "In a tragic accident near Parit Yaani, an 11-year-old girl, Hasya Fahira Zulkifli, lost both her parents when a tar-laden lorry overturned and crushed their multi-purpose vehicle. The young girl will require plastic surgery for the injuries she sustained to her left thigh. Her brother, 8-year-old Muhammad Adam Mohd Hardi, also suffered severe injuries in the incident that occurred on November 1st.\n\nJohor Islamic Affairs Committee chairman Mohd Fared Khalid stated that specialists from Sultanah Aminah Hospital would be brought to Sultanah Nora Ismail Hospital to perform the necessary surgery, preventing the girl from being transferred. The Johor Islamic Religious Council (MAIJ) will cover all costs related to the children's medical treatment, including any additional expenses. This was confirmed after Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi visited the siblings at Sultanah Nora Ismail Hospital today. Onn Hafiz also recognized Hasya Fahira's birthday during his visit.\n\nThe state government is prepared to provide monthly living assistance to the children's uncle, who is currently taking care of the siblings, pending approval. Additionally, the Social Security Organisation (Perkeso) will provide survivors' pensions to the children, as their late father had previously contributed to the scheme.",
