    The renewed conflict between Houthi rebels and Saudi-backed government forces in Yemen has resulted in over 800 deaths, according to the World Health Organization. The fighting has also led to a significant increase in displacement, with over 145,000 people now displaced. The conflict has intensified one of the world's most severe humanitarian crises.

    Why it matters

    The conflict in Yemen has been ongoing since 2014, with Houthi rebels fighting a Saudi-led coalition backing Yemen's internationally recognized government. A UN-brokered ceasefire in 2022 had temporarily quieted the conflict, but recent attacks on Red Sea shipping and Saudi Arabia's Abha Airport have reignited the civil war.
