OIC Observes International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression

 The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) solemnly observes the International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression on June 4, 2025, a day that draws global attention to the devastating impact of violence, conflict, and aggression on children around the world.

This year’s commemoration reaffirms the OIC’s deep concern over the persistent violations of children’s rights, particularly in conflict zones where they are often the most vulnerable. The OIC underscores the urgent need to intensify international efforts to protect children from all forms of violence, abuse, and exploitation, efforts that are fully aligned with the principles and commitments enshrined in OIC charters and resolutions. 

In this regard, the OIC strongly affirms its unwavering stance in defending the rights of Palestinian children, who continue to suffer the devastating consequences of occupation, aggression, and systematic violations of international law.

The OIC reiterates its steadfast commitment to advocating for the rights and dignity of children affected by armed conflict. Through its humanitarian programs, coordination with Member States, and partnerships with international organizations, the OIC seeks to strengthen legal protections, ensure access to education and healthcare, and provide psychosocial support to children who have endured the horrors of war and aggression. 

The OIC also remains deeply concerned about the plight of Rohingya children and those living in dire conditions in refugee camps in some African countries, and continues to mobilize efforts to provide them with vital support and protection.
