YEMEN IS KILLING ITS PEOPLE, HERES HOW -
Shamayun Miah
The crisis is the result of a horrific six-
year military conflict. To say thousands
of civilians have been killed is an
understatement. This is causing
immense misery for Yemenis. With a
collapsing economy and few job
opportunities, many individuals are
unable to purchase basic supplies,
putting them at risk of starvation,
gender-based violence, exploitation,
and early marriage for women
As regards early marriage and molestation of
its women, Yemen has been ranked 154 of
155 according to the Global Gender Gap
Report 2021 for inequality between women
and men. Agreeing with this report, there has
been a jump in reported cases of molestation
and pregnancies.
Reports from Amnesty International suggest
Yemen's ongoing conflict has resulted in the
closure of schools and hospitals, leaving
thousands of children vulnerable to
persistent violence and a dysfunctional
healthcare system.
Yemen is susceptible to
environmental disasters.
According to ReliefWeb, between
April and August 2020, heavy
rains and flooding wrecked
thousands of communities in
Yemen inflicting deaths and
injuries, destroying infrastructure
and livelihoods, and augmenting
the spread of lethal diseases.
The major diseases and
health concerns
plaguing Yemen are
projected to persist
beyond 2021 and into
2022, wreaking havoc
on their physical and
emotional well-being
across the country.
This is the recipe for
the disaster of the
people of Yemen.
Yemen is killing its
people; The World
needs to intervene
Continuous violation of
international
humanitarian law and
international human
rights law is the norm
in Yemen and will
continue to be violated
as long as there is no
political stance in the
country.
