Syrian Children Facing Growing Mental Health Crisis, New Report Reveals

(Save the Children) – A new report by Save the Children has revealed a mental health crisis among children trapped in Syria, as the war approaches the six year mark. The charity and its Syrian partners interviewed more than 450 children, adolescents and adults across seven governorates in Syria for “Invisible Wounds”, the largest study of its kind conducted during the course of the conflict. It found that many children are living in an almost constant state of fear, terrified by shelling, airstrikes and ongoing violence, with devastating psychological consequences.
