Drop in UN Aid Increases Food Insecurity in Yemen

The United Nations warned again of the repercussions of increased food insecurity in Yemen’s liberated areas, as economic experts expressed their concern about new risks after Russia suspended the Black Sea grain deal. Most of Yemen's governorates are witnessing a significant rise in the prices of food commodities and a deterioration in the local currency. Mohammed Shamsan, a resident of the al-Maqatirah district in Lahj, passes daily by the UN aid distribution center, hoping to receive a food basket to help him provide essential items for his family.
