🩸One child dies every 10 minutes in #Yemen, according to a UN’s report.
Millions of Children in Yemen Are Being Pushed to Starvation.

For nine years, Yemen has been locked in a bloody civil war with the #Saud supported government forces.

Over 377,000 people have died in the conflict, with the UN estimating that 60% of these deaths were the result of indirect causes like food insecurity and lack of accessible health services.

Over 75% of the population, or 21.6 million Yemenis, remain in dire need of humanitarian assistance.

Millions have been pushed to the brink of starvation including 2.2 million children under five who have required treatment for acute malnutrition, and a cholera outbreak has affected over one million people.
