Yemen: access to Abyan paves the way for aid distributions

For the first time in several months, many people have been fleeing from the governorate of Abyan to nearby governorates or seeking safer areas within Abyan itself. The ICRC and the Yemen Red Crescent Society have had access to the governorate for the past two weeks and have distributed food rations to over 17,000 displaced people and residents there.
