Yemen UNHCR Aden Sub-Office Fact Sheet - February 2020
Yemen remains the world’s worst humanitarian crisis, with more than 14 million people requiring urgent protection and assistance to access food, water, shelter and health.
In recent months, renewed fighting in several parts of the country exacerbate the already dire situation of millions of displaced persons and their host communities.
The situation is expected to remain challenging as Yemen continues to suffer from a ravaged economy, breakdown of public institutions and services.
