Flooding triggered by sustained heavy rainfall since late March 2026 has left at least 24 people dead across western Yemen, with the most affected districts located in Ta’iz and Al-Hodeidah governorates. At least 7 900 households have been affected along the Red Sea coast, and additional rainfall forecast over the next 48 hours raises the risk of further impacts. Source
