MARIB-SABA
The governor of Marib Maj. Gen. Sultan al-Eradah and the director of MSF-Holland office discussed on Tuesday the efforts of the organization to set up an office in Marib, a government-held city accommodating thousands of displaced families who had escaped Houthi militants crackdown in other parts of Yemen.
MSF-Holland is intending to offer primary healthcare, maternal and infantile health healthcare, and other sorts of help to the growing number of IDPs who still keep coming from Houthi areas.
Briefing the governor his team's humanitarian assessment tour in the province, the director of MSF indicated that the IDP's needs are huge and somehow beyond the capacity of MSF-Holland, citing the need for sanitation system in the city. But he noted that MSF-Holland would work with other NGOs to respond to as many needs within their means as possible.
Al-Eradah noted that the local authority is struggling to address as much of the needs as possible especially needs in terms of accommodation, relief, health, education, water, social protection and social integration. He noted that the resources and infrastructure to offer these services were poor or inexistent altogether before.
