YEMEN’S humanitarian crisis, already one of the worst in the world, is deepening, with continued fighting between government forces backed by Saudi Arabia, and Iranian supported Houthi rebels.
The conflict has intensified in recent weeks as government troops hit back after Houthi attacks on Saudi oil facilities.
The United Nations says there are more than two million malnourished children in Yemen, with the deepening crisis resulting in more than 800,000 unable to get aid.
Most of them are in the city of Taiz, which is under siege by the Houthis.—Oct 23, 2026
