- Two successive tropical cyclones hit Yemen's southern coastal areas in November, worsening food consumption in Al Maharah and Abyan.
- November data shows that households in Taizz experienced a significant deterioration in food security – as seen by the drop in food consumption score and the more frequent use of negative coping strategies.
- IDP households had a deteriorating food consumption score and poor diets than non-IDP households. More than 70 percent of IDP households resorted to food related coping mechanisms such as relying on less expensive foods, limiting portion sizes and reducing the number of meals consumed in a day.
- Households headed by women had poorer food consumption and higher coping levels than those headed by men.
