Emergency Operation to Fight Hunger in Yemen

In Yemen, the people suffer from food, fuel, and and financial crisis which leaves many people in poverty and unable to afford basic food needs. There are alarmingly high numbers of people who are suffering of hunger and high levels of malnutrition. Over 7 million people in Yemen are suffering from malnutrition mostly due to the high prices of food. The World Food Programme has started a two year program in order to help these starving people. The cost of this operation is 77 million dollars which would help deliver rations of food to impoverished families. Another way the WFP seek to help the people of Yemen is reintroducing agricultural assets. As of late the cost of the project is far outweighing the funds they have available. The WFP only has 10 million, which is 67 million dollars short in order to help feed over 1.8 million Yemenis.
