Yemen's Government Reports Nearly 12,600 Displaced Families Across Six Provinces
Officials in Aden say fresh fighting has forced thousands of families to flee, prompting the formation of a humanitarian response cell to coordinate relief efforts.
Yemen's internationally recognized government has reported that nearly 12,600 families have been displaced across six provinces amid a recent escalation in military activity, according to a report by Anadolu Agency.
Local authorities in Aden, the country's interim capital, announced the establishment of a humanitarian response cell aimed at addressing the needs arising from the military escalation and the resulting waves of displacement, the report said.
Details on the specific provinces affected, the causes of the latest fighting, and the scale of humanitarian needs were not immediately available from the source material.
Yemen has endured years of conflict that has repeatedly displaced large segments of its population and strained humanitarian resources across the country.
Authorities did not immediately provide further information on the operations or funding of the newly formed response cell.
