In Afghanistan, during the first half of this year, at least 288 children have either been killed or injured, including in attacks in schools and learning settings. The real figure is thought to be much higher.
The exact number of child casualties is still not verified. @UNICEF expresses its deepest sympathies to the families of the victims and those injured.
.@UNICEF is appalled to learn of the explosion in the Madrasa Al Jihad in Aybak city, Samangan Province, Northern Region, earlier today. It has initially been reported that children were amongst those killed and wounded.

At Afghanistan's border, @UNICEF is there to welcome returning children with a hot meal.
We help them feel safe at the @EUinAfghanistan-supported transit centre in Herat, where they can destress with new friends, connect with a counsellor, and reunite with their families.

A year ago, Parwana was so severely malnourished that her life was at risk.
@UNICEF stepped in, providing therapeutic food and ensuring a nutrition counselor followed up.
Today, Parwana skips, giggles and reminds her mum when it's time for school.

I am saddened to learn of the death of 3 children, all brothers aged 4, 8 & 12, who lost their lives while playing with unexploded ordnance in Farah province. The children were collecting metal scraps to sell & support their family financially.
On #WorldChildrensDay, as we mark the signing of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, we’re reminded how much we still have to do for children to realise every right – inc. education.
Access to quality learning for every child is vital for a happy & healthy childhood.

On #WorldChildrensDay, we mark the signing of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, in 1989, when countries promised to protect children's rights, including the right to education.
For #WorldChildrensDay, a day for children by children, boys and girls in #Afghanistan shared with us what school means to them. Maryam, Gr 6, told us, “Going to school is the light of life. If we don't go to school, our lives will be dark.” pic.twitter.com/aZenZx28id
On #WorldChildrensDay, UNICEF has released a report outlining the impact of discrimination & exclusion on children & how limiting children's access to critical services, inc education, deepens intergenerational deprivation and poverty.

When a baby is born preterm, skin-to-skin contact helps these newborns and their mothers enjoy physical, emotional, and psychological benefits, improving the baby's chances of survival and promoting a healthier start to life.

With high schools shut for girls, it's harder for girls to meet up, get support and learn skills for their future.
