[United Nations: The escalation of the conflict in Yemen has displaced about 142,000 people] On September 29th, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres’s spokesperson Dujarric warned on the 28th that the intensifying hostilities in Yemen have forced about 142,000 people to be displaced. The increasing number of casualties has forced some hospitals to suspend obstetric emergency services to prioritize the treatment of the wounded, while medical supplies are rapidly being depleted. The World Health Organization has issued an alert about a potential cholera outbreak due to widespread overcrowding, unsafe drinking water and poor sanitation in displacement camps. (CCTV News)
