It is a targeted supplement to the broader 2025 Yemen Humanitarian Response Plan, which seeks $2.47 billion to assist 10.5 million people in urgent need of aid and protection.In February 2024, the United Nations and its humanitarian partners launched an appeal to raise approximately $4 billion to address the needs of 18.2 million people in Yemen.
