The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center continued its pioneering humanitarian efforts in the sisterly Republic of Yemen, where the center distributed new quantities of food aid in Hadramawt Governorate, as part of the emergency food interventions project that aims to bridge the food gap and meet the living needs of the most needy families.
As part of this latest support, the center distributed 650 food baskets yesterday in the Hajar al-Say'ar district of Hadramawt Governorate, benefiting 4,550 individuals in need. This distribution follows the center's distribution two days prior of 1,500 food baskets in the Ramah district of the same governorate, which supported 10,500 individuals. The total number of food baskets distributed over the past two days has thus reached 2,150, benefiting more than 15,000 Yemeni citizens.
Context of support and importance of the emergency interventions project
This distribution is part of a series of vital projects implemented by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center in Yemen, which focus primarily on enhancing food security amidst the country's difficult economic and humanitarian conditions. The emergency food intervention project is a cornerstone of the Center's strategy to mitigate the risks of famine and malnutrition, particularly in remote areas and governorates suffering from shortages of basic supplies.
The Kingdom's leading role in supporting Yemen
Since its establishment, the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center has given special attention to the Yemeni crisis, with Yemen topping the list of countries benefiting from the center's projects. This assistance is not limited to food aid but encompasses multiple sectors, including health, shelter, water, sanitation, and education. These efforts are a continuation of the long history of support provided by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to Yemen, stemming from the bonds of neighborliness, brotherhood, and shared destiny.
Human and economic impact
This aid is of paramount importance at this time, as it helps alleviate the economic burden on Yemeni families and provides them with a social safety net that enables them to withstand the challenges of daily life. This ongoing support also reflects the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's unwavering and principled commitment to standing with the Yemeni people in their time of need, and its tireless efforts to ensure that aid reaches those who need it in all Yemeni governorates without discrimination, thus strengthening the stability of local communities and giving hope to millions of beneficiaries.
