Yemen child brides: 13-year-old married, pregnant, starving amid crisis

UN News reports on the plight of child brides in Yemen, where girls as young as 13 are married off and face pregnancy and starvation amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis. The report highlights the intersection of conflict, poverty, and entrenched social norms, with the situation worsening due to the collapse of services and food insecurity. The scale of the problem is likely underreported, and the long-term impact on girls' health and education is severe.
