Renewed Yemen Conflict Displaces Thousands, Fuel Shortage Slows Escape to Djibouti
Renewed fighting in Yemen has displaced over 100,000 people internally and prompted thousands to flee by sea to Djibouti, where aid agencies provide food and shelter.

The conflict involves the internationally recognized government and Saudi Arabia battling Iranian-backed Houthi rebels, who have expanded their control and resumed attacks on Saudi Arabia, impacting regional stability and energy routes.
