UNICEF: Child Malnutrition At “All Time High” In Yemen

The United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) warn that hunger among Yemen’s children has reached an “all time high”, with nearly 2.2 million in need of urgent care. The agency added that round 1.7 million, were suffering from moderate acute malnutrition. These children are suffering from the highest ever recorded rates of malnutrition amid scarcity of food supplies due to Saudi Arabia’s devastating military campaign against its poor neighbor.
