WHO reports surge in suspected cholera cases in Yemen
The World Health Organization reported a sharp rise in suspected cholera cases in Yemen over the past three weeks. Yemen previously endured a cholera outbreak that lasted six years amid its humanitarian crisis.
Why it matters
A renewed outbreak adds to pressure on a population already weakened by years of war and a damaged health system.
Background
Years of conflict have left Yemen with one of the world's worst humanitarian crises, with damaged water and sanitation systems. These conditions previously fuelled one of the largest cholera outbreaks on record.
