Bani Qais, Yemen, Sep 16 (efe-epa), (Camera: Yahya Arhab).- The only health center helping emaciated children in a remote village in western Yemen could be forced to close due to a lack of United Nations funding.Mother-of five Om Adel carried her crying, starving 14-month-old son Adel to the facility in Bani Qais for treatment.She said his body has been dwindling away and his condition was worsening day by day. “If the medical support for this center is cut off, I have no choice but to keep my son at home, waiting for him to die,” she added.“With no money, I can’t buy milk for him or afford to hire a car to take him to the nearest hospital.”The center may have to shut in October as the UN has announced the suspension of 70 percent of health programs in the war-ridden country from September due to lack of resources.Yemen’s prolonged conflict has had a devastating effect on its children, leaving 10.3 million without enough food every day, including nearly 1.8 million under the age of five who are facing acute malnutrition, according to UN figures.FOOTAGE OF A HEALTH CENTER IN BANI QAIS, YEMEN.
