Yemen on the verge of devastating floods... Western warnings sound the alarm Al Hudaydah - Arabian Sea Western climate sources have warned of a wave of heavy rains that may hit the western coast of Yemen in the coming days, with expectations of floods in the city of Al Hudaydah and its many rural areas. These warnings come amid growing fears that any large-scale flooding could paralyze the work of the port of Al Hudaydah, the vital artery for the arrival of food and medicine to millions of Yemenis. But the most dangerous thing - according to observers - is that the port no longer faces the threats of nature alone, as it had been subjected in recent months to military strikes described as "crushing" by Israel and the United States, which caused direct damage to its infrastructure and increased its fragility in the face of any impending natural disaster. Experts confirm that the danger is doubled today with the absence of emergency government plans to confront any potential collapse, warning that the port's shutdown for even one day could lead to a complete paralysis of the movement of humanitarian supplies. Analysts suggest that the conflicting powers may exploit any collapse or disruption in the port to consolidate their influence, whether by controlling access to aid or by reviving the black market, which opens the door to a new chapter of human suffering in the country.
