What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Conflict closures and air attacks are severely restricting medical access for Yemeni patients. The conflict-weakened health system in Yemen lacks the infrastructure and specialist care required for complex procedures. Patients needing treatment must travel overseas, but repeated closures and air attacks have kept flights to Amman out of reach.
