<p>The UK remains extremely concerned by constrained humanitarian access within Yemen.
We do not hold comprehensive data on the exact number of aid trucks being prevented
from accessing areas in need of humanitarian assistance, however the UN has reported
that four million Yemenis in need of humanitarian assistance were affected by the
interruption of services or delays in delivery in April and May this year.</p><p>
</p><p>Administrative restrictions imposed on humanitarian agencies by both parties
remain a principal driver of access constraints. This includes recent delays enforced
by Houthi authorities on aid trucks at the border between Government of Yemen and
Houthi controlled areas.</p><p> </p><p>We regularly raise obstructions to humanitarian
access with all parties, including at the highest levels. The UK also calls on all
parties to comply with the UN Security Council Resolution 2451 and support the unhindered
flow of humanitarian supplies across Yemen.</p>
