The European Commission has announced an additional €22.5 million ($25m) in humanitarian assistance for Yemen as renewed fighting deepens needs and forces thousands from their homes, Anadolu reports.

The funding comes on top of €87.5m previously allocated for 2026, bringing the total to €110m.

“Yemen is once again caught in the violence of war, while its humanitarian crisis remains largely forgotten,” says Hadja Lahbib, the EU commissioner for preparedness and crisis management.

“Families cannot wait for a ceasefire to put food on the table or find a safe place to sleep. Civilians on all sides are paying a terrible price.”
