Taargedkooda horena waa yaman, oo ka mid ah dawladaha sixiixay heshiiskii qaxootiga ee la sameeyey 1951, sidaas ay tahay Yaman ma laha kaabayaal ku habboon hawshaas.

Sempre più persone stanno scappando da conflitti e povertà in Somalia ed Etiopia, facendo un pericoloso viaggio attraverso il Mar Rosso. Lo Yemen, la loro destinazione iniziale, ha firmato la Convenzione sui rifugiati del 1951, ma non ha i mezzi adatti per fornire supporto.
