12 Million Face Famine in Yemen

CNN  

CNN — The number of people facing starvation in Yemen could rise to nearly 12 million as conflict intensifies around the port of Hodeidah, a vital aid delivery link, the World Food Programme told CNN Monday. The WFPsaid 18 million people in Yemen already do not know where their next meal is coming from and eight million of those are “considered on the brink of famine.” “Since June, some 570,000 people have had to flee their homes from fighting in Hodeidah, while the Yemeni riyal has undergone an alarming depreciation, and the cost of basic food items has gone up by a third since this time last year,” WFP Yemen country director Stephen Anderson told CNN. “Due to the highly volatile security situation in Hodeidah city, WFP does not have access to its 51,000 tons of wheat stocks at the critical Red Sea Mills facility, which is sufficient to feed 3.7 million of the hungriest people in northern and central Yemen for one month,” Anderson said. A spokeswoman for the Pentagon told CNN last month that “the final decisions on the conduct of operations in the campaign are made by the members of the Saudi-led coalition, not the United States.” The Saudi-led coalition said its targeting operations in Yemen resembled the “highest international standards” and pledged to investigate the incidents uncovered by CNN.
