Highlights
- March 2025 marked a decade since the conflict escalated in Yemen. The conflict has decimated Yemen’s economy, healthcare system, and infrastructure. In 2025, an estimated 19.5 million people need humanitarian assistance and protection services – 1.3 million more than last year.
- The ongoing regional tensions, attacks in the Red Sea and airstrikes on northern parts of the country pose grave risks to the already dire humanitarian situation in the country, and further endanger the vital flow of food, fuel, and medical supplies, including essential reproductive health commodities that support life-saving care for millions of women and girls.
- Lack of funding to UNFPA’s response in Yemen risks cutting off life-saving services for 1.5 million women and girls and reversing hard won progress in reproductive health and women’s protection, if funding shortages persist.
- In the first quarter of 2025, UNFPA reached more than 450,000 people with life-saving reproductive healthcare, protection information and services, and emergency relief, supporting 126 health facilities, 44 safe spaces, eight shelters, six youth spaces, and five specialized mental health centres.
