UNICEF - 1 IN 3 CHILDREN IN IRAQ IN NEED OF AIDhttps://www.unicefusa.org/stories/five-things-you-should-know-about-children-iraq/30554
UNICEF: 'Some 3.6 million children, one in five of all Iraqi children, are at serious risk of death, injury, sexual violence, abduction and recruitment into fighting. This number has increased by 1.3 million in just the past eighteen months'. 'The country is reeling after decades of conflict, insecurity and neglect, and the impact on children worsens every day. One out of every 25 children in Iraq dies before reaching their fifth birthday. Only two out of five children has access to safe chlorinated water. UNICEF estimates that 4.7 million children across Iraq need some form of humanitarian assistance — that’s about one-third of all children in the country.'
