During the meeting in Istanbul on Wednesday, Fatah gave a detailed account of the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Yemen as triggered by the Houthi rebels' coup and insurgency.

He stressed that the government is working with all donors and international partners to deliver relief aid to all provinces of the country.

The government is currently working on the transition to the second phase of the relief operation; supporting livelihoods and, by extension, promoting stability in the provinces retaken from the rebels.
