UNICEF leader on the impact wars are having on children

Season 2023 Episode 159 | 7m 31s

A report released by the United Nations Children’s Fund contains an appalling statistic. Each day, 20 children are killed or maimed in conflicts around the world. Thousands more have been abducted, recruited into armed conflicts and subjected to sexual violence in global conflicts over the last two decades. Amna Nawaz discussed the report with UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell.
