Yemen war: WFP accuses Houthi rebels of diverting food aid
The World Food Programme has demanded Yemen's rebel Houthi movement stops diverting desperately needed food aid from people in areas under its control. A survey by the UN agency said people in the capital Sanaa had not received rations to which they were entitled.
The WFP said lorries were illegally removing food from distribution areas, with rations sold on the open market or given to those not entitled to it. There was no response from the Houthis, but they have denied diverting aid.
The UN says some 20 million Yemenis are food insecure and that 10 million of them do not know how they will obtain their next meal.
[...] Earlier on Monday, the Associated Press reported that factions and militias on all sides of the conflict had blocked food aid from going to groups suspected of disloyalty, diverted it to combat units or sold it for profit.
