Syria’s civil war enters its fourth year

As Syria’s civil war enters its fourth year, a new report from global children’s advocacy group Save The Children has detailed how 10,000 children have died not just as a result of the fighting, but also from treatable or preventable diseases that have metastasized in the country. This comes after an ad published by the organisation went viral on the internet to highlight the plight of children in Syria. So goes the new advert by UK-based charity Save the Children. The 90 second video was released in the run-up to the three-year anniversary of the conflict.
