  • USAID/BHA partner WFP scales up food assistance across nine governorates in northern Yemen in June, reaching more than 11 million people per month with emergency food assistance countrywide.

  • Renewed hostilities in Marib Governorate result in increased civilian casualties since midJune. USG partners continue to provide humanitarian assistance to conflict-affected IDPs across Yemen, including emergency food and shelter support.

  • Fuel supplies remain limited countrywide and the YER continues to fall in RoYG-held areas, raising food commodity prices.
