ESPID Members - Middle East Conflict

 Dear ESPID Members,

We, as ESPID board, in the face of the shocking eruption of violence in the Middle East, by this statement strongly sympathize with health care workers, children and their families in this area.

 Children are among the primary victims of armed conflicts, and we call on all parties to protect our colleagues, children and their families from further violence. 

We wholeheartedly hope that all will stay safe during the coming time that is filled with fear and uncertainty.
