rights abuses: Samantha Nutt of War Child Canada has visited some of the world most brutal war zones, according to CTV. She says many of the 22 active conflicts around the world will become more deadly in 2017. Those hopes were dashed within hours as shelling and bombing resumed on Wednesday -- a fitting reminder of the ongoing need for Canadians to do what they can to help those caught in the crossfire of global conflicts. I think you are going to see an ongoing displacement of civilians, human rights abuses, atrocities, and a population that is extremely traumatized in a region that is heavily, heavily divided, she told CTV Power Play of the situation playing out in Syria. South Sudan has witnessed a tremendous increase in violence in recent months, and over the past couple of years, said Nutt. That violence is unfortunately going to continue for quite some time. ---- How you can help Charities offering humanitarian aid to Syrians Doctors Without Borders Red Cross Syria Crisis Fund War Child ---- While chilling accounts from within Syria has prompted an outpouring of generosity from Canadians, Nutt reminds donors to consider lesser known conflicts in places like South Sudan, Yemen, and Libya.
