‘Food Shouldn’t be a Weapon of War’: Charities Warn of US Complicity in Yemen

Five prominent international charities are urging the US government to stop its military support for Saudi Arabia and the coalition it leads in their devastating war on Yemen.

Doing so would save millions of lives, the International Rescue Committee, Oxfam America, CARE US, Save the Children and the Norwegian Refugee Council argue.

The coalition of charities says that 14 million people are at risk of starving to death if business continues as usual. That figure is supported by the United Nations Food Program.
