"About 100 Akhdam families (700 individuals) were among the most vulnerable people affected by the floods, according to Andrew Knight, UNHCR Yemen's external relations officer. They have received durable shelters from UNHCR."

I have posted before on Al Akhdam, the poorest and most excluded people in Yemen. I read a fabulous Arabic novel last year about them, I will try to remembers the title. A must read.
