What is the Yemen Crisis?

For more than 11 years, conflict has raged in Yemen, subjecting its people to physical danger, displacement and hunger.

Over 23.1 million people in Yemen are in desperate need of help, and more than half of them are children. They do not have enough food and lack access to clean water and good healthcare.

About 17.1 million people in Yemen do not know where their next meal will come from, with over half of all children suffering from chronic malnutrition.

Over 80% of the population live below the poverty line, and there has been a 34% increase in acute malnutrition among children under 5 in southern Yemen.

Islamic Relief’s response

Islamic Relief has been working in Yemen since 1998, reaching vulnerable communities across 17 of the country’s 22 governorates, including some of the hardest-to-reach areas.

With a country office in Sana’a and sub-offices across the country, our teams remain on the ground delivering life-saving aid despite ongoing challenges.

Islamic Relief’s impact:

In 2025 alone, Islamic Relief supported over 1,080,274 people across Yemen:

• 27,335 people supported through livelihoods and resilience programmes, including cash assistance, small business support, and Cash-for-Work initiatives

• 48,204 people supported through water, sanitation and hygiene programmes, including water system rehabilitation and solar-powered solutions

• 30,448 individuals supported through nutrition programmes, including 20,480 children under five, and 9,968 pregnant and lactating women

• 46,282 people supported through essential healthcare services

Despite these efforts, the need on the ground remains immense. We need your urgent support to broaden our response and reach as many people as possible.
