> Yemen’s humanitarian emergency is worsening amid continued fighting between Saudi-backed government forces and Iran-backed Houthi rebels. The conflict has escalated in recent weeks after government troops retaliated for Houthi attacks on Saudi oil facilities. The UN says more than two million children are malnourished and more than 800,000 people cannot access aid.
