It is the month in which Quran was revealed. This year people are going through too difficult circumstances because Yemen undergoes armed fighting and devastating wars. Consequently, the situation escalated and this led to the lack of the basic necessities of life. As a result, the prices of goods were raised& other goods disappeared from the local markets. In addition, lack of food security increased from 65% to 75% during war time. Not only this but also one million children are suffering from malnutrition. All the above reasons have negatively affected people‟s life & their standard of living. As a result, a lot of families have displaced to safer places to get away from the conflict areas. 95% of the stores in the conflict areas, especially in Taiz, have closed. Public services such as electricity, water and sewer services have stopped. Government offices as well as the development process have stopped working. This directly affected laborers‟ standard of living in their daily wages. Moreover, private sectors workers have been laid off because stores, institutions and companies have closed in the conflict areas. Unemployment has increased to 65% among the youth and poverty reached its highest level due to the current war & the lack of job opportunities that will lead to starvation crises whose direct victims will be those families who have no income or have lost the person who supports them ,either because of death or disability, both caused by war. Based on this and with Qatar Red Crescent efforts, we supported and helped the affected people of war & the displaced in the most damaged areas. And to alleviate the sufferings of the poorest families, Qatar Red Crescent financed “Breakfasting” project by providing the affected families and the displaced ones in ( Taiz, Hajja & Abyan) with food baskets in Ramadan. This report aims at conveying the real and difficult living image of the target groups, to what extent they benefit from the given aids & showing field results and goals fulfillment rates of the project on which the recommendations and suggestions were put. Such recommendations and suggestions were based on the tangible reality which showed how urgent the need is for repeating and expanding such projects. [4] As the Yemeni society suffers from calamities and destruction due to the current war which led to the displacement of people and increased the rate of unemployment as the laborers who most of them are youth work for daily wage or in stores, companies or private institutions. Most of this working class stopped working especially in the areas which are witnessing war and armed confrontations. Based on the goals of the Qatar Red Crescent efforts and Bena Charity for Human Development in providing humanitarian aids for the displaced, the affected by war and the poorest, „Breakfasting" project was executed and targeted (4320) families that contain (30240 ) members in three Yemeni governorates to alleviate the sufferings of the displaced, the affected by war and the poorest as well as the vulnerable groups (widows, children, orphans, & the disabled) by providing food baskets in the Holy month of Ramadan, as follows: - A food basket consisting of ( 25 kilos of flour, 10 kilos of sugar, 10 kilos of Basmati rice, 1.8 liter of oil, 4 kilos of Chinese beans). - (160) Basmati rice bags were given from the difference in the oil amount which was 2 liters in the contract and was exchanged by 1.8 liter. This was executed in Sana'a. The families and the target areas were carefully chosen. The areas were chosen based on being the most in need and which were not targeted before and witnessed the displacement of many families while the families were chosen based on being the neediest and poorest and being vulnerable.

  • Conflict Snapshot – Yemen
    Funded by the European Union COVID-19 SNAPSHOT in December 2020 Yemen Conflict Introduction The ongoing conflict in Yemen is complex and multi-layered, with the involvement of rival regional powers adding a geopolitical dimension to the war. As the national framework has disintegrated, local rivalries have intensified, leaving more room for foreign state interference in the country.1 Since March 2015, a dangerous combination of factors, driven by conflict and economic decline, and now exacerbated by COVID-19, have compounded the dire situation for over 24 million Yemenis, as reported by the UN, international non-governmental organisations (INGOs), and local sources. The country has been de facto split into two since several years: the North, controlled by the de-facto authorities of Ansarullah “Al-Houthi”, and the South, which is controlled by the internationally-recognised Hadi government (IRG). Data collection and analysis Data for this first COVID-19 snapshot report in Yemen Conflict was gathered from 31 October to 10 November 2020 in the following target zones: Tuban and Toor Al-Baha districts in Lahj governorate (located in the South, under IRG control), and Al-Mawasit and Jabal Habashi districts in Taiz governorate (located in the North but under IRG control). This report was prepared by an independent consultant and the Search for Common Ground (Search) Yemen team, with T support from Search’s COVID-19 Response Programming Team and Institutional Learning Team.

  • Women in Storm of War
    10 YEMEN: WOMEN IN STORM OF WAR A HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT ON ABUSES AGAINST WOMEN DURING WARTIME MARCH 2020 YEMEN: WOMEN IN STORM OF WAR A HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT ON ABUSES AGAINST WOMEN DURING WARTIME MARCH 2020 RIGHT RADAR: monitoring human rights YEMEN: WOMEN IN STORM OF WAR INTRODUCTION In Yemen, both women and men have been subjected to extensive abuses and suffering resulting from the ongoing war that started five years ago. However, all the local and international efforts seeking to achieve greater equality between both men and women in terms of political and economic rights have failed over the decades. According to the criteria of International Humanitarian Law, Yemeni women are classified as a vulnerable group. They were, and are still are, the most affected group due to the existing war which has violated all the international laws, treaties, agreements and charters. The war has also ignored the social customs and traditions that consider the abuse of women’s freedom and dignity and involving them in the armed conflict as shameful deeds and crossing a red line. 4 RIGHT RADAR: monitoring human rights YEMEN: WOMEN IN STORM OF WAR Consequently, Yemeni women not only dominated the lists of the dead and wounded as a result of shelling, sniping and laying mines and the lists of the forcibly displaced persons due to the war, according to the available data under these circumstances, but they also dominate the lists of persons forcibly abducted and tortured. Prisons were built especially for women and some of them lost their parents, children, husbands, while others lost their jobs.
