Masuma Sultana, a 30-year-old woman from Dighaba village in Tok Union of Kapasia upazila, Gazipur, gave birth to five babies—three boys and two girls—through a cesarean section at PG Hospital in Dhaka two days ago. The operation was conducted under the supervision of prominent physician Dr. Ruhul Amin. The mother and newborns were later transferred to Module Community Hospital in Rayed Magartek, Kapasia, for postnatal care and were taken home on Friday night in a joyful atmosphere.

According to hospital officials, the surgery was highly risky but was successfully completed due to the expertise of the medical team. All five babies and their mother are currently healthy under continuous medical observation. Dr. Ruhul Amin, who previously gained attention for separating conjoined twins, oversaw the entire process.

The babies’ father, Kajol Mia, a migrant worker in Saudi Arabia, expressed happiness but noted financial challenges in raising the children. Local residents gathered at the hospital to see the rare quintuplets, and the family requested prayers for the mother and newborns’ continued well-being.
