Epidemics strike Taiz.. Yemen's health ministry warns of catastrophe

Taiz, Yemen ·

Yemen's Ministry of Public Health and Population warned that the epidemic situation in Taiz governorate, in western Yemen, could worsen as health services continue to deteriorate. The ministry cited shortages of medicines and medical supplies.

Yemen has been in a long-running conflict since 2014, when the Houthi movement (Ansar Allah) took control of Sanaa, and its health system has been under strain for years, including in Taiz, where control is divided among rival forces.
