According to the United Nations, half the Yemeni population suffers from famine. More than 85,000 children may have died of hunger since Saudi Arabia interfere in the war in Yemen three years ago, according to Save the Children, an international NGO.

    “For every child killed by bombs and bullets, dozens are starving to death and it's entirely preventable,'' said Tamer Kirolos, Save the Children's country director in Yemen.

    With only a few hospitals still 'operational, the nongovernmental organization says that the human cost of the conflict cannot simply rely on official numbers.

    Instead, the charity used historical mortality rates(死亡率) and United Nations data on Yemeni malnutrition to estimate that more than 25,000, or 20 to 30 percent of all acutely malnourished children, have died every year since April 2015. The estimates, the NGO said, may still be lower than the actual number of deaths.

    “Children who die in this way suffer immensely as their vital organ functions slow down and eventually stop. Their immune systems are so weak that they are infected easily, with some too weak to even cry,” said Save the Children representative Kirolos. “Parents are having to witness their children wasting away, unable to do anything about it,” he said.
