<p>The British Government is closely engaged on the humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
The Foreign Secretary has discussed the situation with the Foreign Minister of Saudi
Arabia and Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman several times in recent weeks, most recently
with the Crown Prince on 19 December. We welcome the Coalition's announcement on 20
December that Hodeidah port will reopen for both humanitarian and commercial supplies,
including fuel and food. On 20 December, the Prime Minister discussed this announcement
with King Salman and Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman. In 2017/18, the British Government
is committing £205 million in humanitarian aid to Yemen.</p>
