The situation continues to deteriorate both for the families in displacement as well as for our Partners struggling to provide much needed assistance. Our Partners carried out critical work that touched the lives of 81,355 families this year.
Recent emergency displacements due to flooding and conflict were reported mainly in Taizz, Hajjah, Al Jawf, and Sa’ada Governorates to which the Sub National Clusters organized emergency responses in coordination with the local authorities.
This meant that in As Safra, Al Dhaher, Razih, Sahar, Sa'adah, Kitaf wa Al Boqe'e and Majz districts in Saada Governorate 3,380 families on the move were assisted with emergency shelters and NFIs providing critical shelter assistance at a critical time to assure protection from violence and the elements.
During July and August, about 3,000 families in Aden, Lahj, and Al Dhale’e Governorates were provided with cash assistance to pay their rent and rehabilitate their damaged homes providing a base for them to restart their lives. Challenges with access in AlHudaydah and Taizz continue to be faced by NGOs for conducting rapid assessments and delivering assistance.
