International Labour Organization (ILO) and UNICEF releaved a report that shows the number of children in child labour has risen to 160 million worldwide – an increase of 8.4 million children in the last four years.
The Child Labour: Global estimates 2020 report published a day before of World Day Against Child Labour on 12th June. The report points to a significant rise in the number of children aged 5 to 11 years in child labour. The number of children aged 5 to 17 years in hazardous work has risen by 6.5 million to 79 million since 2016.
Andriy Portnov, former aide to ex-Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, was shot dead in Madrid’s upscale Pozuelo de Alarcon district. Spanish authorities say unidentified gunmen opened fire as the 52-year-old was dropping off his children at school, striking him in the back and head before fleeing.
Portnov, a former MP and lawyer, fled Ukraine with Yanukovych in 2014, briefly returned in 2019, and was later sanctioned by the U.S. for alleged judicial corruption.
