KEY HIGHLIGHTS SHORT-TERM OUTLOOK AND IMPLICATIONS ON FOOD SECURITY: The food security outlook for Yemen through the end of 2026 remains highly alarming, with 18.7 million people (53% of the population) projected to face Crisis or worse levels of acute food insecurity (IPC Phase 3+). Yemen currently bears the world’s highest burden of populations trapped in IPC Phase 4 (Emergency), covering approximately 17% of the population, where the risk of excess mortality (exceeding the expected number of deaths under normal conditions) is real and steadily increasing. Isolated pockets of catastrophic conditions (IPC Phase 5) are already emerging, particularly within SBA controlled areas. Yemen's structural food system collapse is driven by a critical convergence of localized instability, severe funding shortfalls (only 13% funded as of May), and regional geopolitical shocks. Regional escalations and trade disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz are driving up fuel costs, triggering price increases across domestic transport, food, and agricultural inputs. Without immediate multi-year funding and the restoration of humanitarian access, a slide into localized catastrophic conditions (IPC Phase 5) remains imminent.
