Summary

Yemen's civil war has escalated, overwhelming the country's healthcare system. Hospitals across the country, particularly in Aden and Taiz province, are struggling to cope with an influx of wounded patients while facing critical shortages of medical supplies, fuel, and staff. Some medical workers have fled, and maternity wards have been converted into emergency rooms. Three hospitals in Taiz province are no longer under government control. The conflict has displaced over 130,000 people, further straining healthcare infrastructure. Pregnant women and children are among the most affected populations. According to one report, less than 10% of affected health centers are fully equipped to handle trauma cases. Supply route disruptions, including seizure of key ports by Iran-backed Houthis, have exacerbated resource shortages. Local health officials describe the situation as 'very dangerous,' with some hospitals at risk of closure.
