Not children, but two older boys are used as servants and one is hit with a camel whip on one occasion. They are both verbally insulted at times.
SPOILER: They both die.

Horses and camels both are beaten a lot and it appears as if trip wires were used, or other methods of forcing a horse to fall. Distressing to watch

Adult male perpetrator, adult male victim. It's not explicit, but still pretty emotionally disturbing.

Not close up, but there are a lot of dead people shown after a battle. Any blood in the movie looks like fluorescent red paint.

There is implied trauma on the part of the character after he was held prisoner. He also shares how disturbed he feels by another specific incident that happened to him.

Taking place towards the end of the Ottoman Empire, the movie follows the fights of Arabs against waning Ottoman rule. The Turks are not depicted great as a result.

It's hard to say. Lawrence survives but is traumatised and on the brink of madness. Both him and the Arabs have been betrayed by the English. So, although the key figures all survive the movie the overall outcome is not a happy one.
