Doha: Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) is building 224 housing units in two towns of Abs District, Hajjah Governorate, to shelter 1,680 displaced persons affected by war and flooding in Yemen.
This emergency response is part of Qatar s continued commitment to relieving Yemenis and alleviating the impact of the prolonged humanitarian crisis.
At a total cost of $210,024 totally funded by QRCS, the new homes are 5×3 metres in size and are built of mud blocks and straw roofs taken from the local environment.
Eng. Afraa Al Aghbari, the project s manager, said, Abs District is a desert sandy area in northwestern Hajjah, where the displaced people suffer poor living conditions and have difficulty finding adequate housing. Their suffering becomes even worse at times of too hot weather, dust, and rain, which damage their mud-and-straw homes and make them, particularly children, prone to disease.
