Although the war is largely unreported, mainstream news outlets are beginning to shine a spotlight on the food crisis in Yemen.
A recent BBC documentary** showed appalling scenes of starvation. In her 20 years of medical experience, Dr Ashwaq Muharram shared that she had never seen things so bad.
“I’m seeing the same thing I used to watch on TV when the famine unfolded in Somalia. I never thought I would see this in Yemen. If you don’t die from an airstrike you die from illness or starvation. The hardest way to die is from starvation.”
