The Executive Unit for the Management of IDPs Camps in Ma'rib Governorate, eastern Yemen, reported the death of three children due to severe cold in IDP camps in the same governorate.

The unit affiliated with the legitimate government said, in its account on the social networking site "Facebook": "3 children died due to the cold in the camps for the displaced in Marib during the months of November and December of this year."

She pointed out that the camps "lack the most basic and basic health services, amid the absence of the organizations' role in providing cold-prevention tools for children, women and the elderly."

The United Nations International Organization for Migration had stated in a previous report that the 137 displacement sites in Marib had witnessed a significant increase in the number of new arrivals since last September.

There are nearly two million displaced people in Ma'rib governorate, according to the Executive Unit for Camp Management, who fled the clashes that took place in a number of locations in the governorate as a result of the military escalation practiced by the Houthi militias.
