Sexual violence against children inflicts deep and lasting trauma. Often the perpetrator is someone the child knows and trusts. Adolescents and children in fragile settings are especially vulnerable. Here’s more on addressing this global scourge👇

At least 50 children killed in #Lebanon . Many under rubble. And daily attacks continue to kill children here in #Gaza . How have those in power come to accept the suffering of children? Surely a ceasefire in Gaza is critical to deescalation across the region.

As I arrive in the Gaza Strip today, I’m struck by the sheer intensity of the damage and destruction I see and by so many children wandering among the rubble. Too many children killed, too many still suffering. This must end.

Today, I start a visit to the Middle East, a region where too many children have been suffering from violence and war. I will meet children and families in Israel, the Gaza Strip, and the West Bank including East Jerusalem.

"While in #Gaza .. I walked through markets and neighborhoods – or what is left of them. I listened to the struggles of mothers and fathers to feed their children. And there is no doubt in my mind that the risk of famine and a large-scale severe nutrition crisis in Gaza is real.”
