The United Nations Population Fund announced that it has provided psychological care to more than 100,000 Yemenis since the beginning of this year, 2024.

The UN Fund said through its account on the X platform, “Since the beginning of 2024, about 100,000 people in Yemen have received mental health care services in centers affiliated with the United Nations Population Fund.”

A few days ago, the same fund announced that about seven million Yemenis are in need of psychological care..

While the World Health Organization said that the gap between the amount of demand for mental health services and their availability has reached unprecedented levels in Yemen.

The organization noted that “mental health clinics are few, medications are often unavailable, and there is a shortage of mental health specialists, while society rejects mentally ill patients, while the patients themselves’ fear of being judged by their communities prevents many people from seeking help.” ".
