Djibouti urges world to help as Yemen war drives refugee influx

The government of Djibouti has issued an urgent appeal to the international community for assistance in managing a growing influx of refugees fleeing the ongoing conflict in Yemen. The country is currently struggling to accommodate the rising number of displaced individuals seeking safety across the Red Sea.

This request highlights the mounting humanitarian pressure on Djibouti, which serves as a primary transit and destination point for those escaping the war-torn nation. The appeal underscores the regional strain caused by the protracted Yemeni conflict and the limited resources available to host the increasing refugee population.
