New fighting in Yemen displaces 290,000 people, with pregnant women particularly at risk, according to the UN.

A new outbreak of fighting in Yemen has led to the displacement of an additional 290,000 people, exacerbating an already severe humanitarian crisis. The United Nations reports that pregnant women are among the most vulnerable populations affected by the recent displacement. The city of Ta'iz is particularly impacted, with all roads cut off and essential supplies unable to reach nearly a quarter of a million people.
