Yemen has become the “worst humanitarian crisis in the world”, the European Union said, demanding the protection of civilians who continue to die in the three-year-old conflict.

An EU statement on Saturday highlighted the Red Sea port city of Hudaydah, which recently witnessed a bloody assault that killed at least 55 people and was blamed on air strikes by the Saudi-Emirati coalition fighting there. An alliance spokesman denied responsibility for the carnage.  

“The consecutive air strikes in the city of Hudaydah have once again claimed dozens of lives with many people injured,” the EU statement said.
