The Yemeni government has issued a grave warning about an impending healthcare crisis, with over 1,000 medical facilities at risk of closure due to a drastic reduction in international funding, Xinhua reported yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This situation could jeopardize the lives of 500,000 women and leave 600,000 children without essential vaccinations and healthcare services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During a high-level meeting in Aden, Prime Minister Ahmed Awad bin Mubarak emphasized the urgent need for a government committee to assess the health sector’s needs and seek international support. He called on regional partners to renew their “vital and continuous support” to avert a humanitarian disaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Currently, 46 percent of health facilities in Yemen are either partially functioning or completely non-operational, primarily due to shortages of staff, funds, electricity, medicines, and equipment, according to the World Health Organization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
