The United Nations has warned that millions of lives are at risk in Yemen as Saudi Arabia continues to keep all Yemeni air, land and seaports closed. Head of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs Jamie McGoldrick says international bodies do not have access to the Red Sea ports of Salif and Hudayda. Saudi Arabia had earlier said it would remove the siege, however.
