United Nations, May 21 (RHC)-- The United Nations says it needs more time to bring aid to areas of Yemen following the end of a five-day truce.
A UN spokesperson said only half of the proposed supplies were delivered before Saudi strikes resumed on Sunday. Elisabeth Byrs told reporters: "The humanitarian pause in Yemen was not long enough to reach all those in need of food, and WFP is appealing for a series of predictable breaks in the conflict to deliver desperately needed aid."
The United Nations says Yemen has only been able to import one-tenth of the fuel it needs each month. More than 1,800 people have died in Yemen's conflict so far.
