Abstract

This paper focuses on the ongoing war in Yemen and the plight of its people especially women and children. The Yemen conflict has become the worst humanitarian crisis in the world. This conflict started during the Arab Uprisings of 2011 which led to the resignation of then Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh, which eventually led to the civil war between the two rebel groups, namely the Houthis and the Hadis. The war turned into an international proxy war when countries like Saudi Arabia and Iran started supporting these two sects to forward their agendas. This paper also focuses on how little has been done by the international community to stop the war and take notice of the gross violation of international humanitarian and human rights law. The civil war tore the country into two parts and that led to lawlessness, violence, poverty, and human rights violations.
