  • In April, the UN released the 2022 HNO and HRP identifying food insecurity as a main driver of need and requesting $4.3 billion to reach 17.9 people with life-saving assistance during 2022.

  • The UN and USG each released emergency funds in April to address food insecurity exacerbated by the recent rising costs of global food commodities.

  • A truce between Al Houthi officials and the KSA-led coalition beginning April 2 has steadily eased fuel shortages across northern Yemen that had previously hindered humanitarian aid delivery and disrupted livelihoods.
