欧盟委员会周五宣布,向也门追加2250万欧元(约合2500万美元)人道主义援助,因重燃战火加剧需求并迫使数千人流离失所。
The European Commission on Friday announced an additional €22.5 million ($25 million) in humanitarian assistance for Yemen as renewed fighting deepens needs and forces thousands from their homes.
这笔资金是在已为2026年拨付的8750万欧元基础上追加的,使总额达到1.1亿欧元。
The funding comes on top of €87.5 million previously allocated for 2026, bringing the total to €110 million.
欧盟危机管理与防备事务专员哈贾·拉比布表示:“也门再次陷入战争暴力之中,而其人道主义危机在很大程度上仍被遗忘。”
“Yemen is once again caught in the violence of war, while its humanitarian crisis remains largely forgotten,” said Hadja Lahbib, the EU commissioner for preparedness and crisis management.
她说:“家庭无法等待停火来解决温饱或寻找安全栖身之所。冲突各方平民都在付出惨痛代价。”欧盟委员会称,近几周已有近23万人流离失所,并警告军事升级增加了平民伤亡,扰乱了基本服务和人道主义援助。
“Families cannot wait for a ceasefire to put food on the table or find a safe place to sleep. Civilians on all sides are paying a terrible price.”Nearly 230,000 people have been displaced in recent weeks, the European Commission said, warning that military escalation has increased civilian casualties and disrupted essential services and humanitarian assistance.
拉比布说:“必须停止杀害平民、摧毁医院、住房和基本服务的袭击。所有各方必须尊重国际人道法并保护平民。”
“Attacks that kill civilians and destroy hospitals, homes and essential services must stop. All parties must respect international humanitarian law and protect civilians,” Lahbib said.
这笔追加资金将帮助援助伙伴应对不断增长的需求,增强业务能力并预先部署关键物资,优先援助流离失所家庭、妇女、儿童、残疾人和边缘化社区。
The additional funding will help aid partners respond to growing needs, strengthen operational capacity and pre-position critical supplies, prioritizing displaced families, women, children, people with disabilities and marginalized communities.
据欧盟称,也门约有2230万人需要人道主义援助和保护。约520万人在境内流离失所,而5岁以下急性营养不良儿童超过220万。
Some 22.3 million people in Yemen require humanitarian assistance and protection. Around 5.2 million are internally displaced, while more than 2.2 million children under five suffer from acute malnutrition, according to the EU.
拉比布说:“也门人民绝不能被遗忘。无论需要多久,欧盟都将与他们站在一起。”
“The people of Yemen must not be forgotten. The EU will stand by them for as long as it takes,” Lahbib said.
