One in three Syrian children have known nothing but a lifetime of war, UNICEF said Monday, as the country's conflict enters its sixth year this week.
Forced from their homes and schools, orphaned by violence and drafted into work or fighting, a generation of Syria's children is being shaped by the conflict, UNICEF said in a new report.
"Every Syrian child under the age of five has known nothing but a lifetime shaped by war -– that's an estimated 2.9 million children inside Syria and at least 811,000 in neighboring countries," the UN children's agency said.
yria's war has killed more than 270,000 people and, according to the United Nations, forced more than half of a pre-conflict population of 23 million from their homes.
