Here we have no food and rely on neighbours to share a meal or two with us each day. I had to leave all our food behind,\u201d Murshed told Al Jazeera English.\u201cThe last four years were calm, and our hopes of returning home grew stronger. But suddenly, fighting erupted near our camp three days ago, and we found ourselves fleeing again toward an unknown destination.\u201cThe only priority was to carry the children and flee as quickly as possible, because any delay could mean death. It was around 5am, and there were no cars in the camp or the surrounding area since it is on the front line. So, we walked for more than two kilometres until we found a pick-up truck that brought us to this camp for free.\u201dHundreds of other families from the camp fled in every direction, some taken in by relatives or friends, while others searched for another camp that might have space for them. Many without a home now spend their days under the shade of trees, attempting to avoid the worst of the baking midday heat.Murshed ended up at the al-Malika camp in al-Maafer district, Taiz, where she knew relatives, but her family lacks proper shelter. \u201cThey understand our suffering and will help us settle down,\u201d she said.The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reported that at least 46,000 people in Yemen have fled their homes since new clashes erupted last week.On Friday, the Houthis captured Mocha and the last remaining parts of the Red Sea coast not under their control, sending panic through government-controlled areas and causing mass displacement.Aman Murshed and hundreds of displaced families are trying to set up new shelters, but they have received no support from humanitarian organisations [Khalid al-Banna/Al Jazeera]Murshed only had time to grab a few blankets and mattresses before she fled her tent, leaving most of her belongings behind. She is most distressed about abandoning her livestock, her primary source of income and security.\u201cDuring my previous displacement, I managed to take my livestock with me. But this time, I had to leave them behind, and I am certain they were killed in the fighting.\u201dShe is now trying to piece together a basic shelter from wooden poles and a tarpaulin donated by her neighbours, knowing that her future now lies in the hands of locals and aid groups who might help support her family.\u201cWe used to hope to return home, but today we just hope to retrieve the basic belongings we left behind in the previous camp. Here we have no food and rely on neighbours to share a meal or two with us each day. I had to leave all our food behind,\u201d she said.Murshed says she can endure life without enough food and few belongings but her heart breaks for the children in the camp, who have no education, proper nutrition or other essential support.An estimated 22.3 million people of a total population of about 35 million require humanitarian assistance and protection services in Yemen, according to the 2026 Yemen Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP) by OCHA\u2019s ReliefWeb. These include 5.2 million internally displaced people (IDPs).Ahmed Abduljaleel, a displaced man in his 40s living in al-Ghazaliya camp in al-Maafer district, fled his previous home in a camp in Jabal Habashi district early on Friday morning.His story closely mirrors that of Murshed and the thousands of other families displaced by the latest fighting who had been living for years off aid.\u201cOur suffering is clear, but humanitarian organisations have not reached us yet to see that only women and children are sleeping under plastic sheets and using bathrooms, while men sleep outdoors. We all share the pain of a severe food shortage,\u201d he told Al Jazeera.Abdulnasser al-Sourouri, the branch manager in al-Maafer for the Peace and Social Security Organisation \u2013 a local nongovernmental group providing displaced people with food and essential supplies \u2013 said the ongoing fighting is piling immense pressure on aid workers who were already struggling with severe budget shortfalls before the new wave of displacements began.\u201cDisplaced families need all basic services, including food, shelter, clean water and hygiene kits, but we lack the funds to assist everyone,\u201d he told Al Jazeera.\u201cWe managed to help some with shelter, but the need is vast. International organisations and the UN must intervene as soon as possible.\u201dSome of the fiercest fighting in previous days has been in al-Jawf, Marib and al-Bayda governorates, triggering further displacement in all three regions.Ali Qaid, director-general of the Executive Unit for IDP Camp Management in Taiz, said that most of the displaced people had fled to al-Maafer district amid the critical security situation.\u201cHundreds of families are crammed into narrow tents or right beside them, as these camps lack the capacity to absorb thousands of additional families,\u201d Qaid told Al Jazeera.While coordination with aid groups is under way for an urgent response to the situation, current humanitarian interventions remain weak.Muneer, a man in his 40s who preferred to use only his first name, fled Jabal Habashi district on Friday night, leaving behind everything he owns. He was also hit by a bullet in the latest clashes.\u201cI was fleeing my home, following other families, when fighting suddenly broke out and I was injured in my left leg,\u201d Muneer told Al Jazeera.\u201cThe clashes were fierce, but praise be to Allah, it was a miracle that I made it out alive.\u201dMuneer has since been discharged from hospital but now relies on a cane to walk.\u201cWe are exhausted by this war. All we want now is an end to the fighting so we can resume our normal lives,\u201d he said.The UN-brokered truce agreement in April 2022 had brought a temporary halt to major fighting between government-aligned forces and the Houthis, who captured the capital, Sanaa, in September 2014.While there were periodic clashes during this period amid increased regional and maritime conflicts, this month\u2019s fighting is the fiercest in years.During this period, attention was focused on the Red Sea, with the Houthis targeting several ships passing Yemen during the war on Gaza, prompting US and United Kingdom air strikes on the group\u2019s positions.In July 2026, during the war on Iran, the Houthis threatened to attack Saudi-linked vessels passing through the Red Sea. Several ships in these waters and oil facilities in Saudi Arabia have been targeted.Mohammed Ali, a journalist in Taiz, said Yemenis hoping for better conditions during the quieter years have been left bitterly disappointed by the reigniting of the war.\u201cWe believed a peaceful resolution was drawing closer over the last four years, as the military fronts were quiet and there were multiple rounds of discussions between the warring parties,\u201d Ali told Al Jazeera.\u201cHowever, the broader US-Iran conflict effectively brought an end to the 2022 truce, as the Houthis have been attempting to advance to take control of the Bab al-Mandeb strait to serve Iran\u2019s agenda,\u201d he said.\u201cThe warring sides are escalating, but it is civilians who pay the price. A single visit to one of the camps for displaced families is enough to see the severe toll this escalation has taken on the Yemeni people.\u201d" ], "output": "readability", "pwd": "/data/archive/1789207572.519113", "schema": "ArchiveResult", "start_ts": "2026-09-12T13:35:29.232310+00:00", "status": "succeeded" } ], "screenshot": [], "singlefile": [], "title": [ { "cmd": [ "curl", "--silent", "--location", "--compressed", "--max-time", "120", "--user-agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/118.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 ArchiveBox/0.7.4 (+https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/) curl/curl 8.14.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)", "https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/9/12/fighting-re-erupts-in-yemen-and-civilians-are-paying-the-price?traffic_source=rss" ], "cmd_version": "curl 8.14.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)", "end_ts": "2026-09-12T13:35:29.223974+00:00", "index_texts": null, "output": "Fighting re-erupts in Yemen and civilians are paying the price | Conflict News | Al Jazeera", "pwd": "/data/archive/1789207572.519113", "schema": "ArchiveResult", "start_ts": "2026-09-12T13:35:29.192198+00:00", "status": "succeeded" } ], "wget": [ { "cmd": [ "wget", "--no-verbose", "--adjust-extension", "--convert-links", "--force-directories", "--backup-converted", "--span-hosts", "--no-parent", "-e", "robots=off", "--timeout=120", "--restrict-file-names=windows", "--warc-file=/data/archive/1789207572.519113/warc/1789220121", "--page-requisites", "--user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/118.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 ArchiveBox/0.7.4 (+https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/) wget/GNU Wget 1.21.3", "--compression=auto", "https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/9/12/fighting-re-erupts-in-yemen-and-civilians-are-paying-the-price?traffic_source=rss" ], "cmd_version": "GNU Wget 1.21.3", "end_ts": "2026-09-12T13:35:29.181515+00:00", "index_texts": null, "output": "www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/9/12/fighting-re-erupts-in-yemen-and-civilians-are-paying-the-price@traffic_source=rss.html", "pwd": "/data/archive/1789207572.519113", "schema": "ArchiveResult", "start_ts": "2026-09-12T13:35:21.476771+00:00", "status": "succeeded" } ] }, "icons": null, "is_archived": true, "is_static": false, "latest": { "archive_org": null, "dom": null, "favicon": "favicon.ico", "git": null, "media": null, "pdf": null, "screenshot": null, "singlefile": null, "title": "Fighting re-erupts in Yemen and civilians are paying the price | Conflict News | Al Jazeera", "warc": null, "wget": "www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/9/12/fighting-re-erupts-in-yemen-and-civilians-are-paying-the-price@traffic_source=rss.html" }, "link_dir": "/data/archive/1789207572.519113", "newest_archive_date": "2026-09-12T13:35:31.493236+00:00", "num_failures": 0, "num_outputs": 6, "oldest_archive_date": "2026-09-12T13:35:20.692463+00:00", "path": "/news/2026/9/12/fighting-re-erupts-in-yemen-and-civilians-are-paying-the-price", "schema": "Link", "scheme": "https", "snapshot_id": "11b2c673-255b-4833-aad8-0e6f0b2f9369", "sources": [ "/data/sources/1789207572-import.txt" ], "tags": ",pool,escalation,war-wiki", "tags_str": "pool,escalation,war-wiki", "timestamp": "1789207572.519113", "title": "Fighting re-erupts in Yemen and civilians are paying the price | Conflict News | Al Jazeera", "updated": "2026-09-12T13:35:20.692291+00:00", "updated_date": "2026-09-12 13:35", "url": "https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/9/12/fighting-re-erupts-in-yemen-and-civilians-are-paying-the-price?traffic_source=rss" }
