February 12 is the annual Red Hand Day, the commemoration day to draw attention to the use of children in armed conflict and war.
According to figures from the United Nations, there are still 250,000 child soldiers worldwide. During wars between adults, these children are sent to destructive military battles, they must run errands and are reduced to being slaves for their commanders. Female child soldiers often become victims of sexual abuse. Children are not soldiers!!
