Impact of covid-19 on the humanitarian crisis in Yemen

That this House commends the Government for committing £160 million in aid to help fight coronavirus and address the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Yemen; notes the UN-backed collaborative partnership, the International Initiative on covid-19 in Yemen (IICY), to support Yemen’s response to coronavirus by channelling specific medical supplies and funding through the WHO to where they are needed most; and calls on the Government to meet with the IICY and agree on ways to better support the delivery of aid and other resources necessary to save lives in Yemen.
