CHILDREN IN THE WORLD


The Agony of Alleppo's Children Amongst horrific scenes of death, injury and daily tragedy, the children of Alleppo play where and when they can, as they will and must. That is the reality of children and of their play. And they also become truly heroic, not as soldiers but as carers. The world owes German film-maker Marcel Mettelsiefen and Channel 4 a debt for showing us thr awful truth of what is happening whilst the world washes its hands and stands by. The complicity of the international community is criminal, the means to put and end to this lies in the hands of the members of the United Nations, all of them. The veto could be circumvented by nations and leaders of courage. To date, there are NONE. Instead they play 'jockeying for position', over the bodies of dead and broken children. There is the betrayal of the children of Syria, and of the United Nations ideal. Read and view the report here - there is naught for our comfort

An Unknown Child, Unknown Family, Unknown Place Daily violence - the truth for millions of our children across the world. Read Jan Cosgrove's report - warning, there is harrowing material.
