BBC Minute: On the war in Yemen - Who's to blame?

Available for over a year

BBC Minute talks to BBC correspondent Nawal al-Maghafi about a conflict largely forgotten by the outside world: Yemen. The United Nations says the war which has raged since March 2015 has killed more than five thousand civilians, displaced more than three million people, and left more than seven million on the brink of famine. Nawal says that on her most recent visit to Yemen, people told her they would prefer to be killed by a bomb than to suffer the slow, agonising death brought on by starvation. She also discusses who Yemenis blame for the conflict.
