    World Food": 18 million are vulnerable to famine in Yemen


    United Nations World Food Program (WFP) Executive Director David Paisley has sounded the alarm about the humanitarian situation in Yemen.He said that the World Food Program is preparing to increase the volume of its assistance in Yemen, in light of the deterioration and increase in the number of Yemenis suffering from severe food insecurity.
    "According to recent estimates, the number of people suffering from severe food insecurity in Yemen has increased to 12-14 million out of 18 million Yemenis suffering from food insecurity," said Paisley. The United Nations will announce in the coming weeks the results of its study in this regard to determine the number.
    WFP currently provides assistance to nearly eight million Yemenis suffering from acute food insecurity, meaning they do not know where they will get their next meal.
    Paisley made the remarks during a press conference at the UN headquarters in New York before briefing him later in the Security Council in New York. Paisley spoke of what he saw in Yemen during his recent visit to many areas.
    On the role played by Western countries in the region and in Yemen in terms of arms exports, Paisley said, "I will leave politics to politicians ... For me, we want the war to end, with each conflict increasing human suffering."
    "For example, last year alone, the cost of food supplies increased by $ 1 billion due to conflicts, especially in southern Sudan, Syria, Yemen and Iraq," he said. "At any time there is war and conflict there is an increase in the cost of humanitarian and food supplies. It does not matter who presses the trigger or bombs. "
    "He was malnourished and weighed three kilos, a third of the weight of his age," Paisley said of a child who died days after he met him. "He talked about" malnourished children so that their bodies were not left Skin and bone, "appealing to the international community to provide more aid.
    Paisley pointed out that the deterioration of the economic situation has led to a sharp rise in the numbers of needy in recent months, as the number of those suffering from acute food shortage increased by three to five million.
    "We are not on the brink of disaster in Yemen, but the disaster is happening before our eyes now," he said. "There is a need to inject $ 200 million a month to the market to combat rising prices, economic decline and devaluation of the local currency."
