(UNICEF) – On the eve of the Oslo Humanitarian Pledging Conference, UNICEF warned that hundreds of thousands of children in South Sudan’s three most conflict-affected states are at imminent risk of death and disease, including the threat of cholera. The United Nations Secretary General has said that by the end of this year, half of South Sudan’s 12 million people will be either in flight, facing starvation, or dead. At least half of these are children – the most innocent victims in what is increasingly becoming a children’s emergency.
