WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — UNICEF noted that the latest attacks bring the number of attacked schools since October 11 to five.
"Yesterday, when a school compound in Syria was repeatedly attacked, killing dozens of children and teachers, we thought we had seen the depths of depravity," Lake said on Thursday. "Today’s reports of attacks on schools in Douma and western Aleppo should deepen our disgust and outrage."

On Wednesday, UNICEF announced that at least 22 children and six teachers were killed in an attack on a school compound in the Syrian city of Idlib.
Lake said attacking schools and killing children is simply inhuman.
"If the perpetrators cannot find their own sense of humanity, they should heed the condemnation of the world," Lake added.
