Renewed fighting in Yemen has displaced more than 112,000 people and forced nearly 3,000 others to flee across the Red Sea to Djibouti, according to a United Nations announcement made on Friday. The escalation follows Houthi forces seizing control of Yemen's Red Sea coastline last week.
In addition to the mass displacement, the ongoing conflict has severely exacerbated the country's humanitarian crisis. The United Nations reports that a total of 22 million people are now in urgent need of humanitarian aid as the conflict continues to intensify.
