Yemen conflict displaces over 100,000 people, UN says
UN agencies say the fighting has forced 18,000 households to flee inside Yemen and pushed more than 2,400 people across the sea to Djibouti.
- On Tuesday, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees announced over 100,000 people have been internally displaced as fighting intensifies between Iran-backed Houthi militia and Saudi-backed Yemeni government forces along the West Coast.
- Houthi efforts to seize the strategic Bab al-Mandeb Strait, a vital shipping chokepoint, drive the latest escalation, alongside simultaneous attacks on Saudi Arabia and its infrastructure.
- Taiz remains the hardest-hit province with nearly 56,000 people displaced, followed by Lahj where 19,000 residents fled; insecurity and damaged roads severely hamper humanitarian operations.
- More than 2,400 people have reached Djibouti, where UNHCR Representative in Djibouti Sandrine Desamours warned the response is "already under pressure" as aid sites approach capacity limits.
- Djibouti's finance minister, Ilyas Dawaleh, cited growing difficulty managing the crisis, while UN officials expect in excess of 10,000 additional arrivals in the coming days and weeks.
