Thousands of Yemenis suffering from kidney failure risk dying unless dialysis centres in the war-torn country receive more supplies and their staff are paid, the ICRC said.

Yemen’s health sector has been devastated by three years of war by the Saudi aggression. the country facing what the United Nations has called the world’s worst humanitarian disaster.

“Funding for staff salaries are urgently needed to ensure the mortality rate does not rise,” the ICRC said in a statement.
