The UN World Food Programme said 74% of households in accessible government-held parts of Yemen cannot meet basic food needs, its highest level this year, after fighting displaced people and disrupted supplies.
Why it matters
Yemen imports about 90% of its food; further disruption to markets or aid access would rapidly worsen shortages in government-held areas.
