The UN Refugee Agency in Yemen. Three decades of protecting and assisting those forcibly displaced in Yemen.
- The #WorldCup2026 is on. ⚽ In Kharaz camp, #Yemen, 84 refugee children — Somali and Ethiopian boys aged 11–15 — just played their own. 13 teams. Jerseys. Medals. A championship cup. Football is more than a game. For these children, it's belonging. 🏆
- In Marib, #Yemen displaced families are living in shelters that offer little protection. UNHCR and its partner are going door to door to identify those most in need — 770 transitional shelter units are under construction to reach them.
- Today @Refugees releases its annual #GlobalTrends report. Globally, displacement fell for the first time in a decade. In #Yemen, 5.2 million people remain displaced from their homes and the country hosts +63,000 refugees. One of the world's most severe displacement crises.
- Refugees shouldn’t have to choose between safety and services. 🤝 In #Yemen, UNHCR met with refugee community leaders to assess needs and explore how better-coordinated support can improve access to shelter and protection. Because solutions work best when communities shape them
- As UNHCR marks the 75th anniversary of the 1951 Refugee Convention this year, UNHCR and Aden University's Faculty of Law brought together legal experts, academics, and policymakers to explore ways to strengthen asylum and refugee protection frameworks in #Yemen.
- 45,000 displaced people & refugees in #Yemen will receive vital legal aid, documentation, and free healthcare thanks to a $3.1M agreement between @Refugees & @KSRelief. Thank you, KSrelief, for standing with vulnerable families in Yemen. 🔗bit.ly/4ocfAs6
- A document can be a lifeline. At Al-Sowayda IDP site in Marib, #Yemen displaced women are learning about civil documentation and Yemen's new smart ID — knowledge that unlocks access to services, legal identity, and a path forward.

00:00 - Eid Al-Adha Mubarak ☪️🤍 عيد أضحى مبارك This Eid, we stand with the millions of displaced families in #Yemen and everywhere. May your celebration be filled with peace, joy, and blessings.
- 🌙As Eid approaches, 31 refugee women in #Yemen's only refugee camp are earning an income thru their craft. At a straw workshop supervised by the Alghaith refugee committee, they make handmade products sold in Aden with UNHCR support — providing for their families. Eid Mubarak☪️
- In Al-Basateen, Aden, 30,000 refugees & Yemenis share streets where sewage overflows & rains bring flooding. UNHCR & local partners are rebuilding the network — cutting pollution, lowering health risks & bringing safer sanitation to one of the city's most crowded neighbourhoods.
