What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The World Health Organization and OCHA reported that road closures into Taiz city are preventing the delivery of urgently needed aid in Yemen. Across the country, healthcare facilities continue to be targeted, with 27 health facilities and seven ambulances damaged or destroyed since the escalation began in August. Shortages of fuel, oxygen, water, medicines, and surgical supplies are worsening, and there have been more than 22,500 suspected measles cases and nearly 130 deaths, according to OCHA.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The crisis is exacerbated by the closure of roads, which is severely straining health services and limiting the ability of humanitarian organizations to provide essential medical care. Hospitals in Taiz city are relying on emergency stocks as supplies run low, and the UN Population Fund noted that deliveries at the main maternity hospital have halved.
