<br /> <p>Doctors Without Borders (MSF) said on August 3 that more than 430,000 people had been affected by cholera in Yemen.</p><p>MSF warned that people in remote areas of the country were of most concern and many were dying needlessly.</p><p>“Unless aid is increased urgently and a preventive approach taken at the community level, people will continue to die of this preventable disease. A sustained and coordinated response, is needed to stem the spread of the outbreak,” said Sam Taylor, Director of MSF in Ireland.</p><p>The famine and cholera outbreak were a result of more than two years of fighting</a> that has devastated the country’s health, water and sanitation systems. WFP urged all parties involved in the conflict in Yemen to keep Hodeidah port</a> open, so that shipments of humanitarian aid could access to the country.
