Children in Yemen are currently caught up in the world’s largest humanitarian crisis. Half of the population is facing a food crisis. Many more need clean water and medical care.

Nearly eight million children are now going hungry every day and almost a third of under-fives are acutely malnourished. With 40% of the population aged under 15, the country’s needs are huge.
Yemen has been under military attacks by Saudi Arabia since March 26. The Saudi military strikes were launched with the aim of undermining Ansarullah and bringing fugitive former president of Yemen, Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, back to power.
More than 8,300 people have been killed and over 16,000 others injured since the Saudi aerial aggression began. The Saudi war has also taken a heavy toll on Yemen’s facilities and infrastructure.
