The world’s only nonuplets – nine babies born at the same time – have safely returned to Mali, their home country.
They were in the care of the clinic in Morocco where they were born on 4 May 2021.
The babies broke the Guinness World Record for the most children delivered in a single birth to survive.
The record-breaking nonuplets and their parents were welcomed at the airport by the country’s health minister.
The babies – five girls and four boys – were delivered by Caesarean section.
