UNICEF: Yemen faces severe malnutrition among 3.5 million children and women

UNICEF has announced that 3.5 million children and women are suffering from severe malnutrition in Yemen, marking one of the highest levels recorded in the country's history. This includes 2.2 million children under the age of five and 1.3 million pregnant and breastfeeding women. The prevalence of stunting stands at 49% nationwide, reflecting severe and chronic nutritional deficiencies that threaten children's physical and cognitive development. UNICEF emphasized the importance of expanding maternal and child nutrition programs to prevent further harm that could become irreversible, especially during a child's first two years of life.
