In a UN Report, the UN's Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict has accused Syrian troops of torturing and killing children. UN special representative, Radhika Coomaraswamy, told the BBC: ""We also had testimonies and saw children who had been tortured, and who carried the torture marks with them. We also heard of children being used - this was recounted to us by some children - of being put on tanks and being used as human shields so that the tanks would not be fired upon."
