It is a fact that, worldwide, hundreds of thousands of children are found missing everyday. The culprits are war mongers, kidnappers , cruel parents, migration, displacement, underground and open ground gangs engaged in drug peddling, beggary, child sex traders, poverty and the like.
In today’s Palestine , due to Netanyahu’s devilish war of extermination, thousands of children are missing, most of them under the rubble of bombed buildings. So, too, in other war-torn nations.
Europe, Asia, and Africa are all arenas of child disappearances. Legislation alone will not eradicate this evil. Concerted efforts by civil society, educators, media and activists is needed and they should come forward to expose this crime, educate the public and activate sleepy politicians and law implementing agencies to open their eyes.
