Nearly 330,000 Yemenis have fled their homes since early August due to fighting, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reported.
In turn, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights stated that since the beginning of August, 70 civilians have been killed and 214 injured. Half of the dead are children.
OCHA noted the worsening of the humanitarian situation in the city of Taiz. The main supply routes are closed, the load on essential services is increasing, the UN stressed. The roads leading to the city from territories controlled by the Yemeni government "remain blocked or closed due to fighting".
