Also today, the United Nations Central Emergency Response Fund (Cerf) said it will supply US$ 25 million in food and medication to the population of Yemen, plagued by conflict between local rebels and a coalition of Arab countries. <\/p>\n<p>The World Bank said the donation will help the country reform its water resource laws and supply institutions with clear-cut rules and aligned responsibilities. <\/p>\n<p>According to the bank, 96% of all water available in Gaza is unfit for human consumption. A new donation should help the country increase distribution capacity in the area. <\/p>\n<p>The Cerf donation will be spent on vital items for Yemen conflict victims. UN Radio reports that over 21 million people, or 80% of the country&rsquo;s population, require humanitarian assistance of some sort. <\/p>\n<p>The donation will be converted into medication, fresh water, sanitation and fuel. The money will also allow humanitarian aid agencies better access to the victims, via ports and air. <\/p>\n<p>Since March, Yemen is being shelled by a Saudi-led coalition of Arab countries fighting Houthi rebels. The Yemeni president Abdu Rabbu Mansour Hadi had to leave the country and seek shelter in Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>*Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-178965\">Press Release\/Unhcr<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The World Bank is granting US$ 2 million to Palestine and the UN will provide US$ 25 million for purchasing medication to Yemen conflict victims.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2316,"featured_media":178965,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[106],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-51365","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-foreign-affairs"},"wps_subtitle":"The World Bank is granting US$ 2 million to Palestine and the UN will provide US$ 25 million for purchasing medication to Yemen conflict victims.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51365","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2316"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51365"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51365\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/178965"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51365"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51365"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51365"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
