CHILDREN KILLED IN WAR!!

Recent developments in warfare have significantly heightened the dangers for children. During the last decade, it is estimated (and these figures, while specific, are necessarily orders of magnitude) that child victims have included: * 2 million killed; * 4-5 million disabled; * 12 million left homeless; * more than 1 million orphaned or separated from their parents; * some 10 million psychologically traumatized.4

The increasing number of child victims is primarily explained by the higher proportion of civilian deaths in recent conflicts. In the wars of the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries, only about half the victims were civilians.
