Saudi Arabia has launched a devastating war on neighbouring Yemen since March 2015, killing at least 16000 Yemenis, wounding tens of thousands of civilians, and displacing millions of Yemeni people. The Saudi war has also led to widespread shortages, malnutrition, famine, disease and epidemics in the country, which according to the United Nations is currently the world's worst humanitarian disaster.211/203
