                 The SEYAJ Organization for Child Protection
            has issued a statement about the situation in Yemen.
            (1) It reports that more than five million children in
            Yemen are facing death or disease due to a lack of
            fresh drinking water and sufficient food. This is

            because no food, medicine or fuel have been
            allowed into the country for the last month.
                 Many of the stocks possessed by families to
            meet their basic needs have been used up. Water
            and electricity plants are out of commission and sea
            and air traffic has all but come to a halt.
                 The organization reports that schools in Sana'a
            are closed and more than five million students are
            thus being deprived of the right to an education.

            Some 150 schools are inoperable as they have been
            bombed on suspicion of being used as weapons
