Heavy fighting in the central Yemeni city of Tai’zz has forced more than 30 hospitals and medical facilities to close.
Doctors say they also face an acute shortage of supplies.In addition to that, the humanitarian situation is getting worse by the day. Many homes are without power, food and water are scarce, and supplies cannot get in.
Yemen, the Arab world’s most impoverished country, has been under the Saudi military campaign since March 26. The military operations are supposedly meant to undermine Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement and bring fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi back to power.
The Saudi-led air raids have reportedly claimed the lives of more than 7,500 people and injured over 14,000 others.
The attacks have also taken a heavy toll on the country’s facilities and infrastructure, destroying many hospitals, schools, and factories.
Aid groups’ access to the affected areas in the impoverished Arab state has also been severely restricted.
