800,000 Children At Risk as Thailand's Floods Crisis Worsens

Save the Children is warning that the number of children caught up in the continuing floods crisis in Thailand has risen sharply to an estimated 800,000.

Save the Children aid worker Annie Bodmer-Roy said: “Hundreds of thousands of children are having their world turned upside down with no idea of when things might improve. We are deeply worried about children who may become separated from their families - we know from experience that this can be a major risk. These children must be protected. Children face huge uncertainty and need help to get their lives back to normal as quickly as possible”.
