Sea conflict worsens Yemen's fish shortage
The article concerns the Yemeni fishing sector, which has been severely impacted by the war and regional tensions in the Red Sea. Military attacks, particularly by the Houthis, have led to the destruction of ports and disruptions to navigation, resulting in a decline in fish production by up to 50% and a roughly 100% increase in fish prices, especially for tuna. Additionally, targeting boats and closing ports have harmed the lives of thousands of fishermen who support their families, amid increasing risks from mines and maritime attacks. As a result, the fishing sector has become one of the most devastated economic sectors in Yemen, with serious economic and humanitarian consequences for fishermen and their families.
