Almost half of Yemen's population in acute food insecurity: UN
Around 13.5 million or 45% of Yemen's population is facing high levels of acute food insecurity, according to the UN's Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) analysis. The number is likely to increase to 54% of the population by mid-2021. Conflict is the principal driver of food insecurity in Yemen leading to widespread displacement and access constraints, IPC analysis said.
