UNICEF: Up to 10 million children in Yemen in urgent need of humanitarian assistance
[27/03/2024 07:57]
NEW YORK-SABA
The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) has revealed that approximately 10 million Yemeni children are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance.
It further noted that over half of the population, including 9.8 million children, still requires life-saving support.
In a statement, the organization highlighted that more than 2.7 million children suffer from acute malnutrition, while 49% of children under the age of five experience stunting or chronic malnutrition.
"A significant number of children are still deprived of basic necessities, including proper nutrition, which could jeopardize future generations unless urgent measures are taken to provide them with preventive measures and essential treatment they desperately need," said UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell.
"In 2024, UNICEF aims to reach over 500,000 children for the treatment of severe acute malnutrition, which is a crucial step in contributing to the reduction of under-five child mortality," she said.
The Executive Director of UNICEF reiterated the organization's commitment, along with its partners, to providing life-saving support in Yemen to help ensure that children who have suffered greatly will have brighter days in the future.
She emphasized that UNICEF urgently requires $142 million in funding in 2024 to respond to the humanitarian crisis and continue providing humanitarian assistance, including nutrition, health, water, sanitation, education, and protection services.
