       > Nearly 10 million people are facing acute food shortages in
       Yemen and urgent action is needed to avert a famine, the United
       Nations's World Food Programme (WFP) has said.
       >
       > The WFP said on Friday it needed $737m to the end of the year
       to keep its aid programme running in the war-torn country, which
       is gripped by what the UN calls the world's worst humanitarian
       crisis.
       >
       > "The humanitarian situation is deteriorating at an alarming
       rate, pushing people to the edge," WFP spokeswoman Elisabeth
       Byrs told a virtual briefing in Geneva.
       >
       > "We must act now. If we wait for famine to be declared, it
       will already be too late as people will already be dying."
       >
       > She said the famine warning signs were already present.
       >
       > "Yemen is facing a crisis on multiple fronts. Imports have
       declined, food prices are soaring, the riyal is in freefall, and
       foreign currency reserves are nearing total depletion," said
       Byrs.

       Yemenis rally against Saudi war, world's inaction
       --- Quote ---
       > Yemenis staged another rally to show their unity and strength
       in the face of adversity. People from all walks of life took to
       the streets protesting the deadly war Saudi Arabia has been
       waging against their country since March 2015.
       >
       > Protesters said the world must act without double standards
       and hold to accountable perpetrators of violations and abuses
       anywhere in the world and particularly in Yemen.

       retaliatory operations against the Saudi invaders. Yemenis have
       managed to inflict heavy blows on Saudi Arabia through
       retaliatory strikes.

       missile strikes as well as 974 offensives against the positions

       Yemen FM condemns 'silly' Ansarullah terror designation
       --- Quote ---
       > As Joe Biden takes over the White House many are asking what
       changes will be made to American foreign policy, in particular,
       towards Yemen. Trump's terrorist designation of Yemen's
       Ansarullah and continued US support for the Saudi-led aggression
       have both hampered peace efforts. Amid this uncertainty, Press
       TV secured an exclusive interview with the Foreign Minister of
       Yemen's Ansarullah-led government who spoke to us from the
       besieged nation's capital.
       >
       > Slim hopes of progress towards peace in Yemen were swiftly
       dashed this month as then outgoing US President Donald Trump
       designated Yemen's Houthi Ansarullah movement as a "foreign
       terrorist organization."
       >
       > A move widely condemned as deeply damaging to the peace
       process and pushes the country towards famine.
       >
       > Amid fears for Yemen's future, I secured an exclusive
       interview with the foreign minister of the Ansarullah-led
       government in Sana''a for a response to these disturbing
       developments.
       >
       > The foreign minister explained that he felt the US decision
       was "silly" and that Trump was probably paid into making the
       choice.
       >
       > I asked the FM whether Yemen would consider a military
       response. He warned that if the peace process totally fails,
       Yemen is strong enough to fight back.
       >
       > The FM also sent a message to the new president, Joe Biden.
       >
       > It's been reported that Biden's foreign policy team disagrees
       with the terror designation and that many of Trump's policies
       will be reversed in quick succession.
       >
       > But even if the US ends its support for the Saudi coalition's
       aggression, peace may be unachievable so long as the
       Ansarullah-held areas are sanctioned.
