up to £88 million in aid to Yemen over the 2023/24 financial year. This will feed
at least 100,000 Yemeni people every month, provide lifesaving health care and nutrition
services through 400 health care facilities and treat 22,000 severely malnourished
children. The inaugural UK-Saudi Arabia Aid Dialogue in February identified the need
to improve humanitarian access and encourage greater funding commitments by regional
partners. On 23 February, Minister Mitchell launched the BRIGHTLY consortium, a government-NGO
partnership to deliver the UK's flagship food security programme in Yemen.</p>
