KEY HIGHLIGHTS
- Hostilities escalated along the Ta’iz frontlines in the early hours of Thursday, 3 September, with intense shelling and clashes in Maqbanah and Jabal Habashi districts.
- An estimated 1,790 households have been displaced since 3 September, with movements continuing at the time of reporting.
- Most displaced families are moving within Maqbanah and Jabal Habashi; others are arriving in Al Ma’afer, Ash Shamayatayn, Mawza and Dubab. Entire IDP sites, including Al-Hajab, Al-Rajehi and Hajjat Gabeh, have reportedly emptied, generating large-scale secondary displacement.
- Ongoing shelling is restricting the ability of families to move to safer areas, and some households remain stranded in frontline locations.
- Telecommunications disruptions are hampering information collection, verification and coordination, and emergency stocks are severely depleted, particularly Shelter/NFI and food assistance.
