The United Nations and its humanitarian work partners in Yemen have directed a call to donors to provide Yemen with USD four billion for responding to needs of 18,2 million Yemenis this year 2014.

" The Humanitarian Response Plan for 2024 requires USD 2.7 billion as life-saving assistances in Yemen," said the UN Office for Coordinating Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) in a release on Friday.

Due to urgent humanitarian needs, the OCHA appeals to 219 partners working in humanitarian field to provided immediate support to more than 18,2 million in Yemen, added the release.

The release pointed out that the UN Sustainable Development Fund needs also another fund of USD 1.3 billion to provide support to millions of Yemeni people.

“We must not turn our backs on the people of Yemen. I am appealing to donors for their continued and urgent support to save lives, build resilience, and also to fund sustainable interventions,” Mr. Hawkins said.

The war has left 18.2 million Yemenis in need of life-saving assistance and protection, and 17.6 million are estimated to face acute food insecurity, the UN estimated.
