Caption
A man with a walking stick walks through the yard between the unfinished school building being used as a shelter and the newly built tents in the school yard.
This camp near Aden, established three years ago, is based in a school building. Displaced people came and sought refuge in the school building and then gradually added more and more tents in the school yard. All the families are from Taiz and Al-Hodaiedah governorates and are living away from home in very hard conditions due to the lack of food, water and the most basic essential items.
Due to the impact of coronavirus, assistance from NGOs has decreased. Most families in the camp are living hand-to-mouth, reliant on earning money one day to find food for the next. Already malnourished and with no access to healthcare, they are especially vulnerable and the threat of coronavirus means they are in even more danger.
They urgently need food, water, toilets, improved tents and access to healthcare.
