• Al Houthi hostilities in the Red Sea, in conjunction with joint United States and United Kingdom airstrikes on Al Houthi targets in northern Yemen, prompted USAID/BHA partners to enhance contingency planning activities in mid- to late January to ensure the continued provision of humanitarian aid.
• Acute food insecurity in seven governorates in Al Houthi-controlled northern Yemen is projected to decline to Emergency—IPC 4—or worse levels during the February-to-May period, according to FEWS NET.
• The UN warns that the decline in cholera cases in Yemen during December 2023 was likely due to colder weather, rather than sustained health care improvements. Health actors are bolstering preparedness measures ahead of the April–May rainy season in the event of a resurgence in suspected cases.
