Children in the Middle East are suffering as conflicts rage on. Parties' obligations to protect children are repeatedly broken, with devastating results. We urge all parties to show restraint, protect children from harm, and end this vicious cycle of violence.

For months, Halima has not been paid her wages as a nutritionist in Darfur, Sudan. Yet she is dedicated to the health of children suffering from malnutrition, despite challenges from the ongoing war. This is how UNICEF is supporting health workers like her on the ground.
