🌟 Some families eat foliage to survive, Yemen's war for how long? Yemen is the largest humanitarian crisis in the world, with more than 24 million people – some 80 per cent of the population – in need of humanitarian assistance, including more than 12 million children. Since the conflict escalated in March 2015, the country has become a living hell for the country’s children. Yemen currently has the greatest level of humanitarian needs in the world. According to a December report, nearly 16 million people don’t have enough to eat and are in urgent need of emergency assistance. The conflict has resulted in over 10,000 deaths and two million people displaced, looking for shelter from disease and violence. The war in Yemen is having a disproportionate impact on Yemeni women and girls, who are exposed to increased risk of violence, exploitation and abuse while having a harder time accessing basic health care, including maternal and child health. Women and children are already dying from malnutrition in Yemen and the situation could grow far worse. 1.8 million children are suffering from acute malnutrition, of whom 400,000 children under five are suffering from severe acute malnutrition. There are around 1.1 million malnourished pregnant and breast-feeding women. More than 3.25 million women in Yemen are facing increased health and protection risks. Hunger and famine are a direct result of war and can only fully be eliminated by bringing the conflict to an end 🌟 #luxyhijab #yemencrisis #yemen #yemenfamine (at Yemen) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzbhOTuHtVv/?igshid=1l4njledgn95s
