The escalation in the armed conflict in Ukraine poses an immediate threat to the lives and well-being of millions of children in the entire region. The intensification of the armed conflict is posing severe human costs, causing a growing number of civilian and children casualties, interrupting livelihoods, and damaging critical civilian infrastructure, including hundreds of homes, water and sanitation infrastructure, schools and health facilities. Hundreds of thousands of children and their families have been internally displaced and, to date, over one million forced to flee the country in search of safety – the majority are women and children.
