RNA - The outbreak is affecting over 90 per cent of districts across 21 of the country's 22 provinces, Al Ahed reported.
Despite the enormous challenges, humanitarian partners established 234 Diarrhea Treatment Centers and 1,084 Oral Rehydration Corners in 225 affected districts in 20 governorates, according to OCHA.
Some 3.6 million people have been connected to disinfected water supply networks in 12 governorates. Over 17 million people in all governorates were reached with cholera prevention messages.
Meanwhile, the OCHA warned that Yemen is also facing the world's largest food emergency and widespread population displacement.
After more than two years of war, nearly 21 million people need urgent humanitarian assistance, seven million of whom are severely food insecure.
Despite challenging conditions and limited funding, the UN and its humanitarian partners provided direct assistance to more than seven million people this year.
"The humanitarian response to the world's worst hunger crisis and its worst cholera outbreak must be fully resourced", said UN Emergency Relief Coordinator Mark Lowcock during his recent mission to Yemen. "With only two months left in the year, the UN Humanitarian Response Plan is only 56 per cent funded. I know that we can do more."
Against that background, he called on donors to step up their support to the Response Plan to ensure the most effective and coordinated response across the country.
