00:00 - Up to 21,000 children are estimated to be missing in #Gaza. We may never know what happened to some of these children. But every one of them had a story, a family, & dreams stolen from them💔#CeasefireNow Learn more about the missing children of Gaza➡️ bit.ly/3zdnEDF
00:00 - The Duke and Duchess of Sussex met our Youth Ambassadors Maryam and Purity in Nigeria who are tireless advocates for children's rights. Thank you Prince Harry and Meghan for joining us to learn more about how we ensure children don’t just survive but thrive ❤️
- We're deeply concerned & outraged that some of the largest donors have suspended funding for @UNRWA amid a rapidly worsening humanitarian catastrophe in #Gaza We're joining about 20 NGOs in calling for an immediate reversal to these funding suspensions👇 bit.ly/3SC55A3
- "One thing is chillingly clear: Myanmar is no longer a safe place for children" said @save_children CEO @ingerashing. Save the Children will continue to support children in Myanmar but world leaders must act urgently to #ProtectMyanmarChildren. Read:
- “We cannot effectively reach children, women and men in desperate need in #Afghanistan without our female staff. Without women driving our response, we would not have jointly reached millions of Afghans in need since August 2021.”
- This school in Khan Younis has been completely destroyed, but it's not the only one. Nearly 90% of all school buildings in #Gaza have been damaged or destroyed⚠️ Every child deserves a safe environment to live, learn & grow. We need an immediate, definitive #CeasefireNOW.
00:00 - If the bombs don’t kill children in #Gaza, hunger might. Cases of dehydration & malnutrition are increasing rapidly. Starvation must never be used as a weapon of war. We need a definitive #CeasefireNOW and full humanitarian access.
00:00 - We are profoundly sad to confirm that our colleague Sameh Ewaida and his family have been killed by an Israeli air strike in #Gaza. Aid workers are #NotATarget. Our deepest sympathies are with those close to the family. Thank you Sameh for everything you did for children.❤️
- Thousands of children are in urgent need of food, water & shelter in #Kunar Afghanistan as earthquake death toll rises. Our teams are supporting children, but thousands are in urgent need of help. Save the Children colleague, Samira, shares what she is witnessing on the ground.
00:00 - In northern #Gaza, civilians haven't received food since Oct 1st, while trying to dodge bombs & bullets in an area they can't leave. We have 5,000 food parcels ready for families in the north that can't enter due to restrictions. Starvation mustn't be used as a weapon of war.
00:00 - Children as young as 7 are being killed. Myanmar is no longer safe for children. World leaders must act urgently to #ProtectMyanmarChildren. We must see an end to this horrifying killing.
- Children are among more than 100 killed in #Gaza in the worst school attack in 10 months of war⚠️ School attacks are happening weekly. Schools shouldn't be targets. They mustn't be used as battlegrounds. We need a definitive #CeasefireNow to protect children. It's the only way.
