<p>All parties to the conflict are responsible for impeding humanitarian access to
people in need in Yemen. Intense fighting on the ground is making it increasingly
hard for agencies to reach those in need within Yemen. This is compounded by restrictions
on imports of commercial and humanitarian supplies into the country, including fuel.
This in turn is hampering the distribution of humanitarian supplies within country,
including essential food and medicines.</p><br /><p>The UK continues to call on all
parties to facilitate rapid, safe and unhindered access to all people in need in Yemen.
The UK is one of the largest donors to the crisis and has announced £75m to respond
to the crisis in Yemen. UK aid is providing vital medical supplies, water, food and
emergency shelter, working with trusted and impartial actors who have a strong track
record in delivering assistance in difficult and dangerous places. We also support
a UN-led process on access negotiations and the establishment of the Access Working
Group where partners report cases of obstruction and accessible routes.</p>
