Responding to demands of the supreme committee to activate UN offices in the transitional capital of Aden, the program has increased its staff to 6 international employees and 35 locals, confirming commitment of visiting Aden every month by him or his vice.

"We hope to increase the number of the program national staff to nine and 56 from locals…we signed a memo of understanding with the government on the program's operations across the country," he said.

He warned that interference of armed groups in distribution centers is not tolerated issue for the program and the program and its partners should enjoy full operational independence.
