The UN migration agency says at least 112,000 people have been displaced in Yemen within the last two weeks amid renewed conflict between the Houthis and government forces. Nearly 3,000 others have fled by sea to neighbouring Djibouti, the agency added. The government there is preparing for the arrival of up to 10,000 refugees, which will acutely pressure healthcare and education services, the agency said on Friday.
