> Yemen’s health minister, Qasim Buhaibeh, warns that some areas could lose health services entirely if funding keeps falling. War-related displacement and shortages have closed facilities and disrupted supplies. About 19.3 million people need health assistance, while the response is funded at only 17 percent of the required level.
