Indiscriminate weapons: how wars became so deadly for civilians

More children are being killed by explosive weapons than at any other time in history, according to a major new report by Save the Children and Imperial College London.


It’s clear there has been a shift in the way wars are being fought, and children are being caught in the crosshairs.


In this exclusive interview, Arthur and Paul ask George Graham, Executive Director for Global Impact at Save the Children, and Shehan Hettiaratchy, from the Centre for Paediatric Blast Injury Studies at Imperial College London why have wars become so much more deadly for civilians and children in particular?
