The war in Ukraine is hurting women and girls has greatly affected how people in the area get along, how safe they feel, and how strong they are, especially women and girls. Lack of access to social services like schools and limited community resources have made it harder for local women to care for their children, disabled family members, and elderly family members.

UN SECRETARY-GENERAL

The General Assembly’s message is loud and clear:

Stop fighting in Ukraine now.

Put down the guns right now.

Open the door to talk and negotiate right now.

We can’t wait any longer. It’s easy to see how badly the war in Ukraine is hurting women and girls has hurt people. But as bad as things are right now for the people of Ukraine, they are likely to get much worse. The clock that keeps going is a time bomb.

Everyone in the world wants the terrible suffering in Ukraine to stop. That was made clear by how quickly we raised money for our life-saving humanitarian operations in Ukraine and nearby countries. Our worldwide flash appeal got more money than ever before.

 People in Ukraine need peace badly

After a military offensive by the Russian Federation began on February 24, 2022, Ukraine’s situation quickly worsened. At least eight regions, including the capital city of Kyivska oblast and the eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, which were already in conflict, saw an increase in armed violence.

That has caused an immediate and sharp rise in humanitarian needs. The UN says 12 million people inside Ukraine will need help and protection. More than 4 million Ukrainian refugees may need help and protection in neighboring countries in the coming months. On March 1, 2022, the United Nations and its humanitarian partners sent out coordinated Flash Appeals for a total of $1.7 billion to help people in Ukraine and refugees in neighboring countries right away.

In Ukraine, the plan needs $1.1 billion to meet the growing humanitarian needs of the more than six million people affected by military operations and forced to leave their homes over the next three months.

Oleksiy Kuleba, the head of military administration for the area around Kyiv, said Thursday that the place was coming under fire and that since the morning; the enemy has been attacking Ukraine in a big way.

Refugee children in Ukraine

The latest numbers from the Associated Press show that the Russian invasion has forced more than half of Ukraine’s 7.5 million children to leave their homes. Of the 4.8 million children forced to move, 2 million are looking for safety in other countries.

Russia is said to be taking children who are in danger.

Russia keeps adding to the list of terrible things it has done. Several unconfirmed reports, including one from Ukraine’s ambassador to the UN, said that Russian troops took 121,000 children from the shelled city of Mariupol and moved them to the Russian city of Taganrog to speed up the adoption process.

As long as the war goes on, it will seriously threaten the safety of children who have lost their parents.
