A further one million children are at risk of famine in Yemen, the charity Save the Children has warned.
Rising food prices and the falling value of the country’s currency as a result of a civil war are putting more families at risk of food insecurity.
But another threat comes from fighting around the key port city of Hudaydah, which is the principal lifeline for almost two-thirds of the population.
Save the Children says a total of 5.2 million children now face famine.
