War and the state's inability to provide salaries to employees and the high rate of poverty, all of which caused the United Nations to declare Yemen as the largest humanitarian catastrophe in the world. Then came the epidemic of Kofid-19, a killer, which made it all of our duty to strive to protect the poor and endangered people who support their families by providing food.
