The war in Yemen will have cost roughly 377,000 lives by the end of 2021, with the vast majority of the casualties being children, according to a new report from the U.N. Development Programme (UNDP).
The Nov. 23 UNDP report comes as a coalition of lawmakers led by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) moves to block the sale of about $650 million in arms to Saudi Arabia. The war in Yemen has been described as a proxy fight between the Iranian-backed Houthis and a Saudi-supported coalition of Arabs.
