French report shows malnutrition, displacement caused by Saudi-led aggression in Yemen

SANAA, Sept. 6 (YPA) – A documentary film published by a French website revealed the consequences of malnutrition in Yemen, plaguing the population besides the already terrible direct human cost of war that has been waged by the coalition against Yemen since 2015.

The documentary confirmed the prevalence of severe food deficit among 80% of Yemenis, next to cholera outbreaks caused by severe shortage of drinking water supplies.

The documentary discussed the consequences of the war waged by the US-Saudi aggression on the lives of Yemenis and the high cost to their health and lives in general.

It included video footage of cases of Yemenis who lost sight and limbs. It also highlighted the dire conditions in camps for displaced people fleeing war zones, who lost all their possessions and were forced to live in rudimentary and unbearable conditions in small tents without any furniture, electricity and other necessary requirements.

The documentary pointed out that the most affected of the three million IDPs in Yemen are children, most of whom do not go to school.
