African migrants stranded in Yemen face deepening humanitarian crisis as Saudi border closes
African migrants trapped in Yemen confront a growing humanitarian emergency as the country's border with Saudi Arabia remains sealed, according to the International Organization for Migration (IOM). Aid supplies are depleting across Yemen, where the migrant population already faces severe shortages of food, water, and medical care. The closure prevents onward transit for migrants attempting to reach employment or asylum destinations.
