> The UN says more than 800,000 people in Taiz have been cut off from aid during nearly three weeks of a Houthi siege that has blocked supplies. Shortages of fuel, food and medical essentials are worsening hunger and putting hospitals and community kitchens under strain. The European Commission announced an additional 22.5 million euros in aid for Yemen.
