According to the United Nations, by 2025, children in conflict regions such as the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Gaza, Haiti, Myanmar, Nigeria, Somalia, Sudan, and Ukraine have become victims of horrific rights violations.
In 2024, the highest number of serious violations of children's rights was recorded in nearly three decades of the UN mandate on children and armed conflict.
On the eve of the new year, the UN Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict, Vanessa Fraser, emphasized the importance of ensuring that these alarming figures do not become the new norm.
She called for urgent action to improve the situation for children in crisis regions in 2026.
Protecting children in conflict situations is not only a moral and political obligation but also a requirement of international law. Violations of children's rights can be classified as war crimes.

Fraser also highlighted the need to support and strengthen funding for programs aimed at protecting children, as monitoring, accountability, and justice depend on this assistance. She noted the significance of investing in peacebuilding and conflict prevention, as well as in long-term recovery.
The Special Representative urged all parties to conflicts to adhere to international humanitarian law, cease violations, and hold perpetrators accountable. Vanessa Fraser reminded that the promises made to children under the Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Optional Protocol on the involvement of children in armed conflict must be fulfilled, including every child's right to life, development, and the opportunity to be heard — the right to childhood.
