In Yemen, the United Nations is warning millions of people are enduring starvation amidst an international focus on security issues and confronting al-Qaeda. The UN’s World Food Programme says nearly one in three Yemenis — more than seven million people — struggle to find adequate food, with 2.7 million deemed “severely food insecure.” Yemen has the world’s third highest rate of malnutrition. The UN says it will be forced to suspend food distribution in several areas unless it receives millions of dollars in emergency funding by June.
