Increasing violence in Idlib
Violence has escalated in recent weeks between government forces in the region and extremists in Idlib, the rebel’s last stronghold, after a ceasefire was agreed last year. This ceasefire agreement was signed between Turkey, which supports the Syrian opposition, and Russia, the main supporter of the Syrian government (Violence in Syria 2021). According to the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), 512 children were killed in violence in Syria last year.

About 1.7 million children live in Syria’s violence-hit north-west, most of whom have been forced to leave their homes due to violence (Children Situation in Syria).
