It’s been four years since the Saudi-led coalition made its way into the Yemen conflict and there's no end in sight for the misery of Yemeni civilians
The bloody conflict has taken heavy toll on the most vulnerable as an estimated 80,000 kids under the age of five have starved to death.
That was important because Yemen depends on imports for everything from food to medicine, much of which now comes in the shape of aid. Between December and mid-March, an estimated 788 civilians were killed across the country, says NRC. Most of them died in the shelling. Homes, farms, shops and schools - all have been attacked since the poorest country on the Arabian peninsula descended into chaos in 2015.
Saudi Arabia says that Shia Houthis are being financed and armed by Iran, which wants to increase influence in the region. Tehran denies that allegation. “Conflict has destroyed people's’ livelihood. For instance, fishing was an important industry along the coastal belt. Now fishermen are too scared to out into the sea.”
