UNICEF Regional Director for the Middle East and North Africa Geert Cappelaere’s remarks
Statement by UNICEF Executive Director Henrietta Fore
Today there exists an alarming misconception that the conflict in Syria is drawing quickly to a close – it is not. Children in parts of the country remain in as much danger as at any other time during the eight-year conflict.
UNICEF warned today that global cases of measles are surging to alarmingly high levels, led by ten countries accounting for more than 74 per cent of the total increase, and several others that had previously been declared measles free.
Massive flooding, as a result of Cyclone Idai, has left hundreds of thousands of children and families vulnerable.
As families continue to migrate from northern Central America and Mexico, UNICEF is helping protect children along the way and addressing the circumstances that lead to their journeys.
While families in Mozambique reel under the aftermath of Cyclone Idai, Cyclone Kenneth rapidly gathers force in Indian Ocean. UNICEF is on high alert and responding quickly to provide urgent supplies, stop the spread of Cholera, and help avert hunger crisis.
Today is World Water Day. UNICEF is calling for access to safe water for children around the world, especially in emergency situations like cyclone-affected Malawi, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. This is vital to prevent the spread of water borne diseases such as cholera.
