Yemen has been a battleground for outside sources since 2015. Not only has the country been torn apart by war, it is now faced with a pandemic in addition to a deadly famine amidst a cholera outbreak.
As of April 14, the World Health Organisation estimated that more than 600 Yemenis had been killed and more than 2000 injured as a conflict that has been going on since 2011 intensified from March 19 onwards. The WHO says the longer-term conflict has seen more than 250,000 Yemenis leave the country and more than 330,000 internally displaced.
