Children are dying every week in overcrowded camps in northeast Syria, NGO Save the Children said on Thursday. The charity said two children die each week in al-Hol, one of the overcrowded camps where families with suspected links to the “Islamic State” (IS) group are stranded. “Many of the world’s richest countries have failed to bring home the majority of their children stuck in” the two displacement camps, Save the Children said in a statement. At the Roj camp, just over half of all households reported being aware of child labor among children under the age of 11. ‘I cannot endure this life any more’Save the Children also interviewed several children living in al-Hol, where they say they live like prisoners.
