Miseries that war
brings
Vinod Kumar
WARr
brings nothing but hostility and distress. Whenever war breaks out,
civilians especially children, are the most affected. War has claimed
lives of more than two million children and made many disabled in the
past few decades. The war not only inflicts physical but psychological
wounds as well. It is because of this impact that war has on orphaned
kids that efforts are being made to protect them from it. June 4 is
observed as the International Day of Innocent Children Victims of
Aggression. We are providing you a list of Websites, which will provide
information about the organisations that help those children who are
victims of aggression.
