More than 200,000 people have been displaced in Yemen since fighting resumed between the Houthis and the Saudi-backed internationally recognized government, says a UN agency.

“A total of 201,217 people have been forced from their homes in Yemen since fighting started,” says the International Organization for Migration. Nearly all of them, 197,755, have been displaced since early September, it adds.
