STORYLINE:

Millions of Yemenis face alarming threats from hunger and malnutrition, Oxfam, a UK-based charity group said on Tuesday in a report.
   
"Over a third of the Yemeni population are facing extreme hunger, with rates of child malnutrition amongst the highest in the world," it said, urging more international aid.
   
Yemen has been mired in a civil war since late 2014 when the Iran-backed Houthi group seized control of several northern provinces and forced the Saudi-backed Yemeni government out of the capital Sanaa.

The war has killed tens of thousands of people and pushed the country to the brink of starvation.
