> Renewed fighting in Yemen’s Taiz region has stranded dozens of people, including patients who travelled for medical care, after Houthi forces cut land and sea routes along the western coast. About 100,000 others have been displaced, with families in fragile camps facing disease, hunger and a severe shortage of humanitarian aid. Many are seeking safe passage through the al-Wadiah crossing into Saudi Arabia.
