DUBAI - The United Nations regained access to donated grain stored in the Yemeni port city of Hodeidah on Sunday, and began the task of salvaging food that could stave off starvation for millions of citizens before it rots.
But World Food Programme grain stores there have been cut off for eight months, putting 51,000 tonnes of wheat at risk of rotting. The stores came under the control of government forces after fierce battles last year but a major frontline is only a few blocks away.A WFP technical team arrived in the eastern outskirts of Hodeidah on Sunday to begin cleaning and servicing equipment in preparation for milling grain, a WFP spokesman told Reuters.
The U.N. expects that process to take several weeks before starting to mill it into flour and distributing it to the Yemeni communities most in need. Talks aimed at securing a mutual military withdrawal from Hodeidah have stalled despite U.N. efforts.
