Over half a million people have been severely impacted by unprecedented flooding and windstorms in Yemen.

The UN International Organization for Migration (IOM) has been working in the hardest-hit areas providing emergency shelter, cash assistance, and clean water.

But the agency is facing significant challenges, including limited resources and ongoing conflict, which complicates relief efforts, according to Matt Huber, IOM’s Acting Chief of Mission in Yemen

Talking to UN News’s Abdelmonem Makki, Mr. Huber said that IOM has just launched a $13.3 million appeal to scale up its response to meet the growing needs in the country.
