Famine Threat Returns to Yemen, Amid Upsurge in Fighting 😯

The spectre of famine has returned to Yemen as donor countries fail to make good on their 2020 pledges, amidst an upsurge in fighting, fresh hurdles for aid deliveries, and ongoing efforts to nail down a nationwide ceasefire. Increased funding was the main reason that famine was prevented two years ago, but this year only 30 per cent of promised donations have come through, said Mark Lowcock, the United Nation’s top humanitarian official. Several donors, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait, have given nothing so far to the $2.41 billion UN humanitarian response plan. The UN ranks Yemen as the world’s most serious humanitarian crisis, the result of five years of conflict, disease, economic collapse and a breakdown of public institutions and services - leaving a staggering 80 per cent of its population of 30.5 million, dependent on aid.
