In Yemen, aid workers are warning that a U.S.-backed, Saudi-led assault on the port city of Hodeidah threatens to cut off supply lines of food and medicine that are desperately needed by millions. The U.N. has called Yemen the world’s worst humanitarian catastrophe, with some 14 million people on the brink of famine. Over the weekend, the Saudi coalition intensified its assault on Hodeidah, with reports of at least 149 deaths, including civilians, just in the past 24 hours. This is Dr. Mariam Aldogani of the group Save the Children speaking from Hodeidah on Friday.

Dr. Mariam Aldogani: “In the last 30 minutes, there were more than 15 airstrikes. Fifteen. I visited today Al-Amal Hospital. I saw one child. He’s a teenager; he’s 15 years old. He’s totally paralyzed, because before three days he was walking in the street and there is a stray bullet penetrating his neck and cut the spinal cord. He’s totally paralyzed.”
