The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center’s
(KSRelief) humanitarian activities continue in Yemen. KSRelief’s mobile clinics
attended around 1,012 individuals with various health conditions and provided
506 patients with medications in the Hajjah governorate in the conflict-ridden
country.
KSRelief also provided medical care to 9,849 patients in the
Al-Khawkhah district of the Al-Hodeidah governorate. Around 3,508 of them were
also given medications.
KSRelief’s activities in Yemen are conducted through 724
projects involving food security, health, humanitarian and emergency relief
coordination and water, sanitation and hygiene.
KSRelief, along with the Arsal Medical Center in Lebanon’s
Baalbek governorate, also provided medical services to 7,947 Syrian refugees in
August.
Last month, KSRelief also provided urgent aid to Yemenis in
the flood-hit Al-Mahra Governorate. The agency distributed at least 50 tents
and 50 shelter bags to 300 people in Yemen.
In July, 3,606 people in Yemen received medical services by
KSrelief in the Hiran District in the Hajjah Governorate.
KSrelief regularly provides its humanitarian assistance to
Yemen. The country also performed surgeries to separate conjoined twins from
Yemen in recent months. In July, the agency performed a surgery to separate
Yemeni conjoined twins from the Aden governorate. In May, doctors in Saudi
Arabia separated conjoined twins from Yemen.
In 2018, KSrelief also launched the Masam Project in order
to protect civilians in Yemen and safeguard the delivery of urgent humanitarian
supplies to Yemenis.
In July this year, mines planted by the Houthi militants
across Yemen were dismantled by KSrelief's Masam project. They removed
1,538 mines, including 54 anti-tank
mines and 86 non-explosive ammunition in the Aden governorate. They also
removed 266 anti-tank mines and 294 non-explosive ammunition from the Marib
district in Yemen.
The Houthi militants have clashed with Yemen's government
for more than a decade, causing a terrible humanitarian crisis in the country.
