Firstly this :The rest of the world did try to send aid, but the problem is that providing aid in a war torn country is extremely difficult. Al Jazeera blames the Houthis. Whoever is responsible may not matter. Wars usually result is these things.
UN: Houthi rebels impeding aid flow in Yemen
Houthi obstruction hinders several programmes that feed the near-starving population, says a senior UN official.www.aljazeera.com
That statement by the UN official is just like Madeleine Albright shamelessly saying in a TV interview that the deaths of half a million Iraqi children were worth the 1990-91 war and the subsequent sanctions.At least one agency, the World Food Programme, is currently considering cutting back the monthly food aid it delivers to 12 million Yemenis every other month, a UN official said. “It’s unfortunate that people will suffer but this is on the Houthis,” the official said. “They can’t use people as hostages for too long.”
Secondly, the Al Jazeera article does not mention Saudia at all. Saudia is a prime component of the Yemen war. Why is the UNO not pressing upon Saudia to remove itself from the war ?
Third, this :
The article itself says this is the world's worst humanitarian crisis yet only 8.35 billion dollars were spent over five years and this is called "enormous", but USA's military budget for just one year ( 2020- 21 ) is 934 billion dollars ! This is ridiculous ! Is America wanting to kill people more important than saving people in Yemen, including the emaciated boy pictured in the OP ?The UN’s enormous aid programme, totaling $8.35bn since 2015, is vital to keeping many Yemenis alive. The UN says the situation in Yemen is the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.
