France has pledged an additional 3m euros ($3.36m) to support Yemen following the internal displacement of nearly 200,000 people.
– “The Houthi offensive in the Bab al-Mandeb strait has triggered a new humanitarian shock,” French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot told a group of humanitarian organisations in Paris.
– “In response to this tragedy, I have decided to allocate an additional 3m euros in support, bringing our total aid to the Yemeni population to more than 7m euros in 2026,” he said.
– As of September 30, the latest escalations had forcibly displaced at least 197,906 people, according to Yemen’s Executive Unit for the Management of IDP Camps.
