Authorities in Saudi Arabia have issued a warning in the holy city of Mekka, advising residents to remain calm and follow official instructions. A similar alert was also triggered in the coastal city of Dschidda, but was later lifted. The warning comes amid escalating attacks on Saudi Arabia by the Huthi militia. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) reports that fuel shortages in Yemen are making it difficult for people to flee the escalating fighting, with over 94,000 people having already left their homes.
More than 2,000 Yemenis are currently being supported by the government of Dschibuti and the IOM in Dschibuti.
