World failing children in Syria: report
None
The world is failing the children of Syria who face a "shockingly grave" plight as the conflict rages on and their right to live in peace is threatened, a British watchdog said on Monday.
"Syria: A war on Childhood" by the London-based organisation War Child accuses both Syrian government forces and the opposition of failing to protect children during the deadly 16 months of conflict. "Syrian parties to conflict are guilty of war crimes," says the report, noting that the situation of children in the unrest-hit country is "shockingly grave." (AFP)
