In may a truck bomb killed more than one hundred fifty people in kabul in what has been described as one of the worst attacks in recent memory afghans are trapped by violence from eisel and the taliban and what critics say is the inability of Security Forces to protect them. Anger has led to protests and calls for resignations in the government analysts say what i saw lacks the numbers it makes up for in tactics that can orchestrate the sophistication of the operation and amount of exactness impreciseness in your operations they do usually are targeted with little strength or little amount of import it create a lot of wear blended terms of achieving good strategic objectives the people at the Cultural Center were looking back and remembering a dark time or black day as its called in afghanistan when the soviets invaded for the families of the victims thursdays attack has become another black day natasha.

As there. They are supposed to care and why he and us as humanitarian spokesmen he described twenty seventeen as a whoring if the children in conflict zones in the congo in the castle region this was a rapid. Escalation of violence earlier this year where we saw more than four hundred schools attacked we saw clinics attacked and overrun and people just simply had to run into the bush to avoid being killed we saw many deaths Sexual Violence and children and their families left without any food in the hands that terrible nutrition right and again what weve seen there is that those who take up the fighting are deliberately attacking children and families or just not caring and moving ahead with their military tactics whatever the cost to children so in the deep sea where as you say we dont hear about it very much people are incredibly Vulnerable Children are incredibly vulnerable when the dogs of war on waste.

N. Called for five hundred people in need of Urgent Medical care to be allowed to leave but only twenty nine cases have been given approval so far and at least eighteen people have died whilst waiting where hundreds of thousands of children are among the more than one million syrians whove been sheltering in lebanon after escaping the long war in that country why syrians sheltering in lebanon are living in refugee camps so in a holder of ports from one of these camps in the bekaa valley. Tells her grandchild that they will return to syria one day but she doesnt know when that will happen four year old i was born in a refugee camp in lebanon the family is from the city of birth which was reduced to rubble in the war. We cant go back to syria our home has been destroyed our fields are littered with mines we want to return but how can we survive there. Surviving in lebanon is not any easier the United Nations says many refugees are more vulnerable than ever more are falling deeper into poverty many depend on aid to survive and most are in debt their numbers have not increased in years lebanon has tightened its borders and made it harder for syrians to enter the country in two thousand and fourteen the number of refugees surpassed one million a year later the number increased by two hundred thousand by the end of last year that number dropped by around one hundred ninety thousand and now the number is below one million until today about sixty thousand Syrian Refugees have already travelled have already departed from lebanon to third countries through such programs but it could also be because syria. Through their own or through different. Third countries. Also know that since the beginning of two thousand and seven a few thousand.

Believes that conditions for a safe return are not yet in place for many returning is not an option they hide their identities because theyre scared some are wanted by the Syrian Government are working with the opposition others fear arrest they defected from the army because they didnt want to fight and there are those who dont want to return to avoid conscription in the army this area and government and its allies are more and more territory. Fighting is stopped in some areas cease fires and what is known as reconciliation deals are being reached but for the opposition there is no reconciliation with a government that has killed so many people just to stay in power. Some however are so desperate that theyre ready to make peace at whatever cost. Advocaat of all those involved in the conflict should work to end this conflict and ask president Bashar Al Assad to forgive and forget and forgive me and let us go back home once and for all were tired of this. Many wont agree with the opposition continues to demand the removal from power that could be more years in exile and with the way the war is going for some it could mean never returning to syria.
