Famine is pushing Yemen 'off a cliff', UN says in revived appeal

The humanitarian situation in Yemen is “falling off a cliff”, with 16 million people going hungry and a $2.5 billion hole in the global aid budget, a UN spokesman said on Thursday.
Stephane Dujarric said more than 20 million Yemenis needed assistance in a country on the brink of famine more than six years after Iran-backed rebels toppled the internationally recognised government.
“This includes more than 16 million men, women and children, who are going hungry this year, Mr Dujarric said.
Tens of thousands of people are already living in famine-like conditions, with five million just one step away.”

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A bipartisan group of U.S. senators pressed the State Department on Tuesday to push international donors to address a $2.5 billion shortfall in assistance to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
Their move underscored continuing concern in Congress about the effects of Arabian Peninsula country s civil war.
Today, nearly 50,000 people in Yemen are living in famine-like conditions with 5 million more just a step away. Unlike in 2018, the international community has so far mostly failed to rise to the challenge and provide the robust funding needed to stave off this catastrophe, the senators wrote in a letter sent to Secretary of State Antony Blinken and seen by Reuters. ....
