Crisis in Yemen

par OXFAM CANADA

The humanitarian situation in Yemen continues to deteriorate with fuel shortages, rising food prices and a severe lack of basic services- making daily survival a painful struggle for millions. The conflict between a Saudi-led coalition of Gulf countries and the Government of Yemen against the Ansar-Allah movement (also known as the Houthis), escalated in March 2015, causing more than 54,000 deaths and injuries.

Over three million people have been forced to flee their homes due to the bombing and fighting. Nearly 22 million people– 75 per cent of Yemen's population– need emergency aid.

Yemen is facing the world’s worst ever recorded cholera outbreak, which has spread to nearly every corner of the war-ravaged country. More than 1 million cases have been reported and over 2,200 people have died since the start of the epidemic. Many more are now at risk, already weakened by hunger and the effects of the ongoing war.
