Humanitarian Update YEMEN HUMANITARIAN Covering 5 - 11 February UPDATE 2018 Protracted clashes in Al Hudaydah GovernorateYEMEN: Al Hudaydah Districts YEMEN: AL HUDAYDAH GOVERNORATE HAJJAH Military operations and airstrikes intensified in the western AMRAN coastal areas of Yemen in November 2017, leading to the Az Zuhrah takeover of Al Khawkhah district by Government of Yemen Alluheyah (GoY) forces. Al Qanawis A rapid assessment by FAO in January found that conflict Al Qanawis AL MAHWIT Al Munirah had disrupted market systems as displaced people had Kamaran Az Zaydiyah Al Mighlaf sold their animals at distress prices to meet their house- As Salif hold needs and requirements. The assessment found a 50- Ad Dahi 80 per cent increase on sales of livestock but at 50-60 per SANA'A Bajil cent reduced prices. Prices of basic food commodities in the areas had increased by 30-50 per cent compared to Al Hajjaylah Bura Al Marawi'ah the pre-crisis. Al Mina AL HUDAYDAH AL HUDAYDAH Al Hali As Sukhnah Al Hawak On 5 February, as part of an intensified military campaign Al Mansuriyah RAYMAH on Yemen’s western coast, GoY forces backed by the Sau- Ad Durayhimi di-led Coalition took control of Hays district in Al Huday- dah Governorate from Ansar Allah forces.

District Border Al Khawkhah TAIZZ Al Khawkhah °· 10 Km IMPLICATIONS ON THE HUMANITARIAN SITUATION • Preliminary information indicates that up to 14,000 households may have been displaced in the last three days from Al Khawkha, Hays and Zabid districts. • Unconfirmed reports indicate that the road between Al Garrahi and Hays is blocked, and might be contami- nated with mines. This is limiting the movement of civilians. • The Wadi Naklah bridge on the main road connecting Hays and Al Garrahi has reportedly been damaged. • Hays hospital, the main health facility in the district, is not operational since 10 December 2017, after it was damaged by airstrikes. The facility should be re-operationalised as a matter of priority. • The Water Desalination Plant in Al-Khawkhah Junction in Hays is operating at half capacity after the main gen- erator was damaged. The pumps need to be urgently repaired or replaced. • WHO has managed to deliver 20 tons of life-saving medicines and medical supplies to respond to rising number of injuries received by hospitals in Hudaydah. • Farming and fishing activities have been disrupted, thereby cutting off a major source of livelihood in the coastal areas such as Tuhayat district where the majority of the population (approx.102,000 people) work in the fisheries and agriculture sectors. • Livestock watering and feeding have been disrupted. This may negatively affect households’ purchasing pow- er and their nutrition situation. Livestock vaccination and treatment are needed. • Displacement towards southern governorates continues: Aden hub reports having received almost 7,000 displaced households since December 2017. Approximately half of the IDPs originate from the districts of Al Garrahi, Hays, Al Khawkhah, Al Mokha, Zabid and Al Hudaydah.

  • Determinants of Bilateral Trade Between China and Yemen: Evidence from Var Model
    International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management United Kingdom Vol. V, Issue 5, May 2017 http://ijecm.co.uk/ ISSN 2348 0386 DETERMINANTS OF BILATERAL TRADE BETWEEN CHINA AND YEMEN: EVIDENCE FROM VAR MODEL Abdullah A. S. Mudhish College of Economics and Trade, Hunan University, China [email protected] Zhang Ya Bin The Dean, College of Economics and Trade, Hunan University, China Abstract This study investigates determinants of bilateral trade between China and Yemen providing empirical assessment of the extent to which economic fundamentals impact and influence the volume of trade between the two countries with a focus on the impact of GDP growth on exports and imports. Applying the Vector Autoregression (VAR) model, this study estimates the effect magnitude of economic growth both in China and Yemen on their bilateral trade in addition to the analysis of the impact of other control variables included in the study. The results of the Vector Auto regression VAR model imply that China real GDP positively impacts Yemen exports to China while Yemen real GDP is a determinant of Yemen imports from China. While real bilateral exchange rate has ambiguous impact on exports and imports, the real oil price negatively impact trade between the two countries. Keywords: China, Yemen, Exports, Imports, Trade, Vector Autoregression, GDP, Exchange rates, Oil price INTRODUCTION China witnessed huge economic growth and expansion during the last two decades and it has become the world’s second largest economy, and after its accession to World Trade Organization WTO in 2001, China has become the world’s largest exporter according to most recent trade statistics.

  • Area‐Based Response Plans
    AREA‐BASED RESPONSE PLANS At the heart of the humanitarian emergency in Yemen is a protection crisis that threatens the life, safety and well-being of millions of civilians, not least women, children and the most vulnerable already struggling to survive. Ongoing conflict and its consequences on basic services and institutions, have resulted in civilian casualties, displacement, damage to vital infrastructure and disruption and loss of livelihoods, not to mention harmful coping mechanisms and the breakdown of community support structures. The conflict in Yemen continues on several geographic fronts, where the implications on protection differ depending on the nature of armed conflict, vulnerabilities, and composition of the population, among other factors. The Protection Cluster (including its Child Protection and GBV Areas of Responsibility) has, in line with and as a follow-up to the cluster strategy outlined in the 2019 Yemen Humanitarian Response Plan, developed an area-based analysis of the most severe 100 districts based on the Humanitarian Needs Overview in terms of protection needs, taking into account other converging humanitarian needs. Based on this analysis, the cluster has developed sub-national response plans linked to the typology of needs, ranging from frontline conflict and trapped populations, to first line responses to protection and displacement, IDP hosting sites, and community-based responses.
