The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre distributed 2,000 cartons of dates on Thursday in Marib to internally displaced families who have sought shelter in camp-like settings.
This assistance comes within the framework of the various projects offered by the Center to alleviate the suffering of the Yemeni people as a result of the humanitarian crisis it is experiencing, state news agency SPA reported.
Conflict and deteriorating conditions across Yemen are pushing millions of displaced Yemenis further into danger and adversity, UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, and IOM, the UN Migration Agency, warned.
Since the beginning of the conflict in March 2015, more than 11 per cent of Yemen’s population, some 3 million people, have been forced to flee their homes for safety.
