As conflict continues across Yemen, hunger and starvation surges at unprecedented levels. Over 20 million Yemenis, including women and children, are in need of humanitarian assistance. Nearly 2 million young children are malnourished and are in need of specific dietary needs and supervision. Sadly, thousands of children have died from starvation.
Food prices are on the rise and the instability of the Yemeni currency has reckoned with families in need.
