The organization called on the United Nations and its agencies working in Yemen, the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center, and the private sector in Yemen to take the initiative and provide relief to thousands of impacted families and alleviate the humanitarian suffering of tens of thousands of people, a large number of whom are displaced.
