DESCRIPTION:

The Republic of Yemen was created on this day in 1990 with reunification of the Yemen Arab Republic and People's Democratic Republic of Yemen.

Yemen is the poorest country on the Arabian Peninsula and has had few years of peace. In 2015, a civil war again erupted in the small nation between Houthi separatists and ruling government. This quickly became a regional conflict with Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, backed by the United States, attacking the country. The conflict continues as of this writing.

Though the Saudi Coalition blames its rival Iran and positions this as a proxy war, an investigative report by PBS Newshour in 2018 interviewed Houthi rebels and found no such material support.

Rather, it illustrated the humanitarian disaster unfolding in which over 1 million people have been diagnosed with cholera, million more are starving and the majority of aid is cut off. Human Rights Watch calls it the worst humanitarian crisis in the world. It continues to be largely ignored by the Western media.

Though this is Yemen's national day, the ongoing war leaves little room to celebrate.
