The UN food agency is planning to rapidly scale up food distribution to help another 4 million people in Yemen over the next two months. This would be more than a 50-percent increase in the number reached now – if access can be maintained in the war-stricken country. The “ambitious undertaking” finalizes plans in the works in recent months to reach 12 million people with food and nutritional supplements through January, from between 7-8 million now, according to World Food Program’s spokesman Herve Verhoosel. The target population includes some 3 million women and children who need special support to prevent malnutrition. The rollout will require “safe, immediate and unimpeded access for food and other vital supplies.”
