<p>The UK announced our new pledge of £160 million in humanitarian funding for Yemen
in the 2020/21 financial year at the Yemen Pledging Conference on 2 June, of which
32% has already been disbursed.</p><p>The package as a whole will help tackle the
wide-ranging, direct and indirect impacts of COVID-19 in Yemen which are already exacerbating
a dire humanitarian crisis. Our support will also specifically provide over 700,000
medical consultations, train 12,000 healthcare workers to work safely in a COVID-19
environment and provide a much-needed boost to nearly 4,000 health centres.</p>
