UN says over 200 children killed in Lebanon in under two months
The UN says over 200 children have been killed in Lebanon in the less than two months since Israel escalated its attacks targeting Hezbollah, after a year of the terror group assaulting the Jewish state.
“Despite more than 200 children killed in Lebanon in less than two months, a disconcerting pattern has emerged: their deaths are met with inertia from those able to stop this violence,” James Elder, spokesman for the UN children’s agency UNICEF, tells reporters in Geneva.
“Over the last two months in Lebanon, an average of three children have been killed every single day,” he says.
