This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Stop the killing of children in Syria
More details
On Friday 25 May, 49 innocent children were killed in sickening attacks on the Syrian town of Houla.
Thousands more children are experiencing terrible suffering and trauma in Syria, yet aid agencies like Save the Children aren’t yet able to get urgent help to these children who have been injured and traumatised by the conflict.
Unless more action is taken now to stop the fighting, we are likely to see the further slaughter of children in Syria.
Please do something to stop this, the rights of these children need to be protected from this violence and make clear that all perpetrators of atrocities must be held to account for their crime"
