World Food Program needs 2 billion dollars for emergency food support in Yemen

The United Nations World Food Program (WFP) announced that it needs about two billion dollars to provide relief to Yemenis during 2022.

The program said on its official account on Twitter that it “currently provides food aid to about 13 million Yemenis”, out of 30 million, warning that “Yemeni families are currently facing unprecedented levels of hunger,” and that “20 million Yemenis need urgent humanitarian aid.”

Earlier, the United Nations announced that by the end of 2021, the US-Saudi aggression against Yemen will lead to the death of 377,000 people either directly or indirectly.
