We must continue to reject this new normal and demand the protection of children in conflict everywhere, always.

Schwere Angriffe in der #Ukraine legen die Energie- und Wasserversorgung lahm, die Temperaturen liegen weit unter dem Gefrierpunkt. Es ist ein Wettlauf gegen die Zeit. UNICEF arbeitet unermüdlich daran, 1,65 Mio Menschen, darunter 470.000 Kinder, mit Hilfsangeboten zu erreichen.
Kein fließendes Wasser, um zu duschen. Kein Strom, um zu kochen. Frieren, während Raketen heftig einschlagen & für massive Zerstörung sorgen. Im kältesten Winter seit Beginn seines Angriffskriegs schießt Russland die Ukraine in eine humanitäre Katastrophe. Aus Kyjiw @tagesschau.
