UN: Conflict worsens Yemen crisis
The hostilities and widespread displacement in Yemen continue, intensifying the humanitarian crisis, especially in Taiz Governorate. Since the beginning of August, 216,000 people have been displaced nationwide, including more than 172,000 in Taiz. Despite the arrival of emergency aid to 143,000 people, road restrictions and infrastructure damage are leading to shortages of food, fuel, water, and healthcare, with rising commodity prices and an escalating fuel shortage. Additionally, 72% of safe areas remain closed, deepening the suffering of women and girls. Civilians continue to be killed, including children, with increasing injuries. Meanwhile, the United Nations continues to call on all parties to ensure the protection of civilians and facilitate the safe and rapid delivery of aid.
