Rejected petition Send immediate assistance to stop children starving in Yemen

I would like the Government to immediately send food & medical assistance to Yemen to stop children starving. There are 12.3 million children in desperate need of humanitarian help & 2 million of them are under 5 & malnourished. This crisis is being made worse by Coronavirus. Time is running out!

More details

The Government has the means to quickly organise and send large quantities of food aid and medical supplies to anywhere in the world. The military has the capability to rapidly plan and transport people and supplies within hours. This crisis cannot wait weeks or months for action - children are dying now and it needs an effort that the UK Government has the capability to help.
