Lahj Refugees Face Siege
Houthi attacks in western Lahj Governorate and projectiles landing near Kharaz camp have restricted refugees’ movement and disrupted some services, raising concerns for more than 65,000 refugees and asylum-seekers in Yemen. The camp is home to around 9,500 Somali and Ethiopian refugees, and no casualties have been reported there. Deteriorating security and services, along with rising prices, have driven families to flee to southern areas, including Aden. Clashes have also forced some schools and legal aid services to suspend operations, while food, healthcare and water services continue with difficulty. Since fighting intensified in August, UNHCR has organized three flights from Aden to Mogadishu, returning 607 Somali refugees. More than 1,100 others have expressed a wish to leave. UNHCR warned that shelling and funding shortages threaten evacuations and the flow of aid.
