On that occasion, ISESCO urged the international community to take immediate action to ensure protection for Syrian children who are exposed to bombardment and imposed starvation in Syria, and to refugees fleeing the Syrian regime’s oppression to neighboring countries, while attending to their needs in terms of education, health care, security and psychological support, in accordance with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Declaration of the Rights of the Child.
