– About 3.7 million children do not go to school, and immediate action is needed to integrate them back into school, Save the Children Syria leader Rasha Muhrez begging
The civil war that broke out in 2011 has significantly weakened the Syrian economy and destroyed the country’s infrastructure. According to Muhrez, around 7.5 million children are in immediate need of humanitarian aid.
– Children have been deprived of their basic rights, such as access to education, health care and security, due to the civil war as well as natural disasters and the economic crisis, says Muhrez.
Also, an offensive by the HTS rebel group that began in November, which led Bashar al-Assad to the fall of the regime, forced 700,000 people to leave their homes, according to the UN.
– Some schools were again used for temporary accommodation due to the new wave of refugees, says Muhrez.
