Nearly half of Yemenis go to bed hungry every night as political instability compounds a global food and fuel price surge, giving the country the world’s third-highest rate of child malnutrition, the World Food Program said yesterday. Forced to import most of its food needs because of a paucity of arable land, Yemen has also suffered from a rise in global food and fuel prices, WFP spokesman Barry Came told Reuters. “Five million people, or 22 percent of the population, can’t feed themselves or buy enough to feed themselves ... These are mostly landless laborers, so they don’t grow their own food, and with high food prices they can’t buy it either,” said Came. Arab news
