Children in Lebanon Suffer from War Injuries

The ongoing conflict in Lebanon has left many children severely affected, particularly those like Adam Afana and Hussein Mikdad, who have suffered physical and psychological trauma due to Israeli airstrikes. Adam, a Gazan child who sought refuge in Lebanon, faces new fears as the conflict escalates, while Hussein, a survivor of an airstrike that killed his family, is left with significant injuries and emotional scars. Reports indicate that over 100 children have been killed in the past six weeks due to increasing airstrikes in residential areas, overwhelming medical facilities. The psychological impact on these children is profound, with experts warning of long-term trauma resulting from displacement and violence. Meanwhile, stories of severe injuries, such as those suffered by Ivana, highlight the devastating consequences of the conflict on innocent lives. The plight of these young victims underscores the urgent need for humanitarian aid and mental health support in the region.
