AFP, 16 Mar 2021
Ten years of fighting have irreversibly changed Syria and the lives of its people. Millions of children have grown up knowing little but war. According to the UN, half a million children in Syria are chronically malnourished and hundreds of thousands are suffering from psychological distress. The war has also pushed 2.4 million children out of school.
