The young gap-toothed girl has kept a harrowing log of the Syria conflict

(CNN) Turkey has announced its intention to take in 7-year-old Bana Alabed, who captured the world's attention by sending tweets from Syria's war-ravaged city of Aleppo, according to Turkey's Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu.

Describing Bana as the girl "who announced the Aleppo massacre to the world on social media", Cavusoglu told state-run Anadolu that she and her family would be brought to Turkey.

On Sunday, Bana's mother sent a Tweet urging Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Cavusoglu to help evacuate them. Turkey helped broker the ceasefire deal that made the evacuations possible.
