premise: The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) has warned of increasing violence in northeastern Uganda, noting the violence could have a lasting impact on the civilians, especially children.
  The UNICEF said in a statement issued here on Wednesday that the violence in areas of northern Kotido district linked to the ongoing disarmament exercise of armed warriors by the Ugandan military could pose both short and long term effects on the children due to sustained exposure to violence.
  "Violence can keep children out of school and rob them of the chance to fulfill their potential. Multiplied many times over, violence robs the community of its potential for development," said Martin Mogwanja, the UNICEF representative in Uganda.
  The UN's agency again called for restraint of all arms carriers in the region to avoid further escalation of insecurity and to minimize the impact of innocent civilians, especially on the lives of children and families.
