Yemen: Grain Supplies at Risk of Rotting as Millions Face Famine Risk
---------------------------------------------------------------------

In Yemen, the U.N. is warning that grain supplies that could feed up to
3.5 million people for one month are at risk of rotting, due to the
ongoing war. The flour mills, located in the port city of Hodeidah,
store grain from the World Food Program and have been inaccessible since
September. Yemen is the worst humanitarian crisis in the world, with 10
million people on the brink of famine.
