WHO scales up support to mitigate child malnutrition in Yemen
18 April 2018 – As the conflict in Yemen continues unabated, the situation worsens, with more than 1.8 million children under the age of 5 acutely malnourished, including 500 000 children suffering from severe acute malnutrition, requiring immediate admission into therapeutic nutrition programmes. Responding to rising malnutrition rates in Yemen, WHO is providing life-saving treatment for children with severe acute malnutrition and medical complications, supporting 47 centres, with 3 more planned in 2018, to cope with the rising needs for malnutrition treatment services.
