International NGOs working in Yemen welcome the upcoming political consultations in Sweden. After almost four years of conflict in Yemen, up to 14 million people – 50 per cent of Yemen’s population - do not know where their next meal will come from. An estimated 85,000 children under five are presumed to have died from extreme hunger or disease since 2015.

Executive Summary
From 11th – 16th May, 2018 Action Against Hunger- USA conducted a standard nutrition and mortality SMART survey in the former Fangak County of Jonglei State (former), South Sudan. A total of 396 households were assessed and this report contains the preliminary results of anthropometry, health and mortality indicators assessed in the survey (see specific objectives in section 1.3 below). The FSL, IYCF and WASH indicators will be included in the final report.
With the ongoing clashes around the frontline of Hodeida, one of Action Against Hunger's main warehouses serving humanitarian operations in the country suffered collateral damage from the ongoing conflict. After calls for a ceasefire by the international community only a matter of weeks ago, this is a deeply disturbing development. Action Against Hunger calls on all parties to the conflict to respect humanitarian activities and facilities to preserve essential aid to thousands people in need in the country.
