George Graham, Executive Director at Save the Children, and Shehan Hettiaratchy, a paediatric blast injury expert at Imperial College, discuss the alarming rise in child casualties due to explosive weapons. They highlight how modern conflicts utilize more destructive technologies and urban warfare tactics, leaving children uniquely vulnerable. The guests explore the societal impacts of these casualties, gaps in long-term outcome research, and the need for better accountability measures to protect civilians, especially children, in war zones.
