Humanitarian organizations warn of looming food crisis if immediate resolution to negotiations is not reached.

Sana’a, 07 December 2023 – Twenty-two humanitarian organizations in Yemen today are voicing our deep concern regarding the World Food Programme's (WFP) recent announcement of a “pause” of the General Food Assistance (GFA) programme, which will impact 9.5 million people experiencing food insecurity across northern Yemen.

يواجه أكثر من 21.6 مليون شخص، أي 75% من سكان اليمن، ممن أرهقتهم سنوات الحرب الثمانية، إحتياجات إنسانية ملحة .[1]يحتاج الشعب اليمني ويريد أن ينظر إلى المستقبل  ويبتعد عن المساعدات الإنسانية ويتجه نحو الاعتماد على الذات وإعادة بناء بلده. يقف اليمن أمام فرصة تاريخية للإنتقال نحو السلام الدائم. إن المجتمع الإنساني ملتزم بدعم هذا الإنتقال.

Already exhausted by more than eight years of war, over 21.6 million people, 75 percent of the Yemeni population, are grappling with humanitarian needs.[1] The people of Yemen need and want to look into the future and move away from humanitarian assistance towards self-reliance and rebuilding their country. Yemen stands at the historic opportunity for a shift towards lasting peace. The humanitarian community is committed to supporting this shift.
