The Yemeni Civil War has led to the worst humanitarian crises in the world. According the the UN, 233,000 people have been killed and 7 million more are at risk of famine.
In addition, the conflict is incredibly difficult to wrap your head around due to Yemen’s complex history.
Today we break down the basics:
- Yemeni colonial history in the 19th and 20th century
- How the modern state of Yemen was created.
- The major players on the ground.
- The events that led to the breakout of the war in March 2015.
- Why the war continues to go on.
