Save The Children In Middle East
$0 of $27.000 raised
Children in the Middle East are bearing the brunt of the world’s most brutal conflicts. Despite progress, research from Save the Children’s 2020 Global Childhood Report shows that the Middle East has the highest number of children forcibly displaced by conflict, with Syria and Yemen being two of the most dangerous countries for children in conflict.
Life for children in Yemen – which was already the poorest country in the Middle East – has deteriorated into a living nightmare since conflict escalated more than five years ago. Children starve to death daily and are shelled and bombed in their homes and schools. Extreme hunger and disease are killing an estimated 100 children in Yemen every day.
