8:20 pm
we would expect more based than what we see now. i think one of the things that the health sector has the main underfunded. this is also true data pockets which are not accessible to the health service providers because of the security and other access constraints. but what is also important that in pockets where health services were accessible to the people, those marginalized and hard to reach people, deaths in those communities have been less than what we have seen in other locations. i think we should stay away from fighting against fire. if you look at this country, the country is fighting with crisis over 19 and this is, you're absolutely true. this is a climate change. what do we need shipped with a focus from the humanitarian lens to more developed mental illness when it understand how we can make a resilient health system,

a comprehensive end to the conflict are really requires agreement among the emmys themselves. a lot of people are looking at the saudi, iranian, or agreement. as of perhaps an important step. the conflict in yemen is widely seen as a proxy war between saudi arabia and iran. earlier this month and beijing both countries agreed to restore diplomatic relations. and while there's been no official confirmation that the prisoner swap was part of that deal. tensions between outside backers of the mean factions in yemen have since lessened the hope now that a deal could boost broader efforts to into conflict that has created what many call a humanitarian catastrophe. 8 years of fighting have left millions of people facing poverty and insecurity. and with food shortages wide spread malnutrition among children is soaring. while a you and broker truce last april has largely held it expired in october without the parties agreeing to extend it, leaving many to wonder if this latest step will help towards creating a permanent piece. i am a jim jim,
