More than 1700 families in Al- Manjoura Cap, which located in  Abs- Hajjah north-western Yemen, after they lift their homes as a result of Saudi raids in their houses and districts in Hajjah.

Al- Manjoura Camp one is one of Hundreds IDP camps that have distribute throughout Yemen, where there are no basic necessities, especially water.

“We do not have water, food and shelter. There is very little water. For the shelter, the displaced people live under tributaries and some are under trees,” says one displaced person

Another displaced person says that more than 450 families are given 5,000 liters of water every two days. This is not enough. A third displaced person says they were given two packs of 20 liters of water per household and each house has 12 or 15 members

As for sanitation, one of the residents of the camp says that there are no bathrooms, and if Oujda is exposed, another says that we have to cover the bathrooms with blankets and then go back to our children’s homes at night

Despite the modest requirements of the displaced, they cannot find relief from the disaster they have suffered. Local and international humanitarian organizations, which are accused of failing to provide assistance to the displaced, do not provide enough for displaced people. Two to three months, one minute.
