About Yemen's National Day.
Middle East/West Asia
Ends: May 22, 2023
DESCRIPTION:
The Republic of Yemen was created on this day in 1990 with the reunification of the Yemen Arab Republic and the People's Democratic Republic of Yemen.
Yemen is the poorest country on the Arabian Peninsula and has had a few years of peace. In 2015, civil war again erupted in the tiny nation between Houthi separatists and the ruling government. It quickly became a regional conflict with Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, backed by the United States, attacking the country. The battle continues as of this writing, though without US support since February 2021.
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.

Instead, it illustrated the humanitarian disaster unfolding in which over one 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, and 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.
