​I receive a wide range of representations on the humanitarian situation in Yemen, including from non-governmental organisations and other government departments. Yemen is one of the most serious humanitarian crises in the world. The UK is the fourth largest donor to the conflict in Yemen and I regularly raise humanitarian issues with the Coalition. Most recently, The Foreign Secretary discussed the humanitarian situation at the Quint meeting, between US, UK, United Arab Emirates, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Oman and the UN, in Bonn on 16 February.
