We work closely with partners to understand the impact of UK aid spending, including in Yemen. Our focus remains on protecting and prioritising the most vulnerable and ensuring our aid is delivered in the most effective and efficient way. Our aid to Yemen this financial year is feeding 240,000 of the most vulnerable Yemenis every month, supporting 400 healthcare clinics and provided clean water for 1.6 million people. We also provided one-off cash support to 1.5 million of Yemen's poorest households to help them buy food and basic supplies.
