“It’s all very well for the United Nations to write reports…

Reports are no good, unless something is done about them…The United Nations has known that this situation was developing since 2011, the UN had its eyes on it.

 

“These militants, the fact that they still exist is because they got aid and training…This is not something that developed from nowhere…The culprits are the people who are responsible for supporting and funding ISIL (or ISIS as it is also known)… the United States and its Arab allies need to be held accountable for the fate of these children…”

The United Nations has warned that ISIL takfiri militants operating in Iraq have created an extremely volatile and dangerous situation for children.

The Secretary-General’s Special Representative on Children and Armed Conflict, Leila Zerrougui, said the new crisis in Iraq is taking an extremely worrying turn.

She stated that there are disturbing reports of the recruitment of child soldiers and other grave human rights violations against minors in the conflict zone.

She made the remarks while presenting the annual report of the UN agency’s activities. Earlier, Human Rights Watch said that ISIL militants are using children as human shields in Iraq.

According to H-R-W, in one incident on June 17, the ISIL terrorists detained ten children from a district in Mosul and took them along for their operations on the outskirts of the city.
