Across the Middle East, 52 million children have had their education disrupted by war in the past 6 months. As children elsewhere prepare to return to school, millions face another year without safe, consistent learning. Every child has the right to learn: https://t.co/2zMKKhuliw
Children living through war need people who can help them feel safe, protect them from further harm and support them to begin healing.
Humanitarian workers make that possible. But they increasingly face the same dangers as those they support: https://t.co/lMef1k9YVB

A 7.4-magnitude earthquake struck Chocó, Colombia, early yesterday morning.
We are devastated to hear that children are among those that have sadly lost their lives, and our thoughts are with all the children, families and communities affected.

For children already living with the effects of violence, displacement and other crises, a new emergency can bring further fear and uncertainty. Their safety, wellbeing and access to support must remain a priority.

Three days. That's how long five-year-old Ariana was trapped beneath the rubble after an earthquake destroyed her home in Afghanistan.
With support from @Uk4Afghanistan, she's now getting the care she needs to heal.

Many children affected by Ebola will never catch the virus. But they'll still live with its consequences.
For children already living through conflict, the impact can be even greater.

Right now, children in El Obeid, Sudan, are facing a rapidly worsening crisis.
As violence intensifies, tens of thousands of displaced children are at risk while essentials like food, water and fuel become increasingly scarce.
1/4
Children and families have already endured unimaginable violence, leaving deep psychological scars. They shouldn't have to experience this again.
Governments and all parties to the conflict must protect children and allow humanitarian aid to safely reach those in need.
