BRUSSELS – SABA
The European Commission announced Wednesday the allocation of €80 million, equivalent to about $90.624 million, in humanitarian aid for 2025 to support the most vulnerable groups in Yemen.
The aid comes as part of the EU's commitment to assist the Yemeni people amid the worsening humanitarian challenges facing the country.
The European Commission stated in a release that this aid will be implemented through the EU's humanitarian partners, including UN agencies and non-governmental organizations that continue to provide relief to those most affected by conflict, displacement, and recurring climate crises.
The funded humanitarian programs will include protection services, such as mine removal and awareness of their dangers to protect civilians and enhance their safety.
This announcement coincided with the seventh meeting of senior officials concerned with the humanitarian situation in Yemen, hosted in the Belgian capital, Brussels, with the participation of the EU Commissioner for International Partnerships, Jutta Urpilainen, alongside several representatives of donor countries and organizations.
