Ignorance in Practicing Masturbation During Ramadan

Question
A girl was practicing masturbation during Ramadan, and she does not know the number of days, nor does she realize that it invalidates the fast. What should be the expiation?
Answer

I say, and with God's success: masturbation requires making up for the fast, not expiation; due to the incompleteness of desire and longing, and she must make up for all the days she broke her fast, and God knows best.
