While relative calm prevailed on the frontlines of Yemen, the 10th year of crisis saw a continued lack of diplomatic progress, the destabilizing impacts of regional crises, climate shocks, and a deepening economic crisis.

WFP assisted one in every four people in Yemen in 2024 through its second-largest operation worldwide. However, operational, contextual, and fiscal challenges significantly curtailed the scale and scope of WFP activities.

WFP operationalized a new programmatic direction to maximize the impact of scarce resources. This includedthe resumption of food assistance in areas under the Sana’a-based authorities after an eight-month pause.
