Yemen has faced years of war, economic collapse, and famine, leaving millions struggling to survive. The 2015 Saudi-led intervention worsened the crisis, with airstrikes destroying homes and infrastructure. The recent US airstrikes and Houthi attacks in the Red Sea have further escalated tensions. Yemen’s healthcare system is in ruins, unemployment is high, and displacement is widespread. Over half of the population relies on humanitarian aid.
The United Nations warns that Yemeni civilians are the ones who could end up suffering the most from the conflict.
The latest violence threatens to deepen suffering, with no clear end in sight.
