The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has reported that more than 200 million children across over 130 countries will require humanitarian assistance in 2026. UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell made the statement during a regular session of the organization’s Executive Board, according to Anadolu Agency. She described the situation as one of the most severe humanitarian crises in history, emphasizing that the scale and complexity of challenges facing children worldwide are intensifying.
Russell highlighted that conflicts, climate change, economic instability, and inequality are placing immense pressure on children, families, and societies. Despite the growing humanitarian needs, she reaffirmed that child and maternal health remain core priorities for UNICEF. She also noted a sharp rise in violence against children, with 2025 recording the highest number of serious incidents, including killings, abductions, and sexual violence.
UNICEF, which operates in more than 190 countries and territories, called for stronger partnerships to sustain life-saving operations and address the escalating global humanitarian demands.
