UN statistics on the number of martyrs and wounded children as a result of the war on Yemen

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) announced that it had documented the death and injury of at least 10,200 Yemeni children during the past seven years.
According to a statement issued by the representative of the organization in Yemen, Philip Doamel, “since the escalation of the conflict in Yemen nearly seven years ago, the United Nations has verified the death and injury of more than 10,200 children, and the actual numbers are likely to be much higher” and “it is reported that at least 47 children were killed or injured during the first two months of this year in several areas in Yemen.”
UNICEF calls on the parties to the conflict and those who can influence them to protect civilians wherever they are, stressing that the safety and well-being of children must be preserved and their protection guaranteed at all times.
The organization added, “The time has come for a sustainable political solution so that Yemenis and their children can live in the peace they deserve,” after “violence, misery and grief have become commonplace in Yemen with devastating consequences for millions of children and families,” according to the same statement.
