UN warns of rapidly developing humanitarian crisis in Taiz

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

The United Nations reports a rapidly evolving humanitarian emergency in the southwestern Yemeni city of Taiz. More than 800,000 people are currently cut off from aid due to an ongoing siege.

Jens Laerke, spokesperson for OCHA, stated that blocked access routes have resulted in only minimal amounts of food, fuel, and other essential supplies reaching the city. Taiz remains the last urban stronghold for government forces fighting an armed group.

Pope Leo XIV referred to the situation in the region during his Sunday prayer.
