After nine years of conflict, the needs in Yemen remain immense. Over half of the country's population, 18.2 million people, require some form of humanitarian assistance in 2024, with recent regional conflict dynamics escalating risks.

Over 6 million women and girls face increased risks of violence, with limited access to services, especially in rural areas. In 2024, around 17.8 million people require healthcare assistance, including 5.5 million women needing reproductive health services and 2.7 million pregnant or breastfeeding women needing treatment for acute malnutrition. Only one in five healthcare facilities offer maternal and child health services, highlighting the urgent need for increased capacity.

Since the beginning of the year, UNFPA's response has reached over 350,000 individuals with life-saving reproductive healthcare, protection information and services and emergency relief, with support to 103 health facilities, 36 safe spaces, eight shelters and seven specialized mental health centres.
