The United Nations issued a report describing the tragic conditions of the displaced people in the Yemeni governorate of Marib.
Women and children represent over 79 percent of the total displaced people in Marib, read the report issued by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees on Tuesday.
Most displaced families (90 percent) live in extreme poverty on less than $1.4 per day, it said, noting that most of them resort to harmful coping mechanisms.
