Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the situation of children in Syria, including those held in camps and detention and rehabilitation facilities in north-east Syria; and what assistance they are providing for child-focused humanitarian initiatives in that country.

There are over seven million children in need of humanitarian assistance in Syria and more than two million out of school. Through INGOs and UN organisations, the UK aims to help children across the country, including in North-East Syria, through multi-sectoral support including water, hygiene and sanitation (WASH), education, health, nutrition and child protection services.
