Malnutrition is surging in Yemen, outpacing treatment capacity, MSF warns. With humanitarian funding slashed, the medical charity urges urgent financial support to prevent a worsening crisis. Without action, malnutrition cases could spike further in the coming months.
Admissions for malnutrition in Yemen remain alarmingly high, MSF said.
"If we don't act now by boosting nutrition programs, ensuring affordable transport to health facilities ... then we risk an even greater surge of malnutrition in the months ahead," said Himedan Mohammed, head of operations for MSF Middle East.
The organisation said it was unable to meet all the needs despite scaling up treatment capacity, and called for financial support following "sudden and drastic reductions" in humanitarian funding to Yemen.
