The U.N. said Tuesday that over 200 children have been killed in Lebanon in the less than two months since Israel escalated its attacks across Lebanon.

"Despite more than 200 children killed in Lebanon in less than two months, a disconcerting pattern has emerged: their deaths are met with inertia from those able to stop this violence," James Elder, spokesman for the U.N. children's agency UNICEF, told reporters in Geneva.

"Over the last two months in Lebanon, an average of three children have been killed every single day," he said.
