The Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, Tom Fletcher, said today, Wednesday, that the year 2024 was full of profound challenges for Yemen, as it was characterized by regional escalation, a worsening economic crisis, and increased threats to the safety and security of UN and humanitarian personnel.

An official in the office of the UN envoy to Yemen revealed that ongoing consultations are being held with officials of the Central Bank in Sana’a and Aden to find technical and sustainable solutions to avoid a deeper economic collapse, including assessing the optimal money supply and unifying the exchange rate throughout the country.
