A newborn baby was found covered in blood and filth in an airplane's trash can in Manila on Sunday.
The shocking discovery on a Gulf Air flight was made as crews prepared the plane for a return trip to Bahrain, where it originated.
Security officials brought the baby, who was covered in blood and wrapped in tissue paper, to an airport clinic, where doctors and nurses examined him and cleaned him up, wrapped him in cloth and gave him a bottle of milk, airport officials said.
The baby was later turned over to social workers posted at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport.
"After he was cleaned, he let off a soft cry," airport nurse Kate Calvo said. "He was healthy, his vital signs were OK according to our doctors."
