Al Hudaydah, August 31- Heavy rains and landslides have triggered severe flooding in Yemen's western province of Al Hudaydah, resulting in the deaths of at least 84 people and injuries to 25 others. The floods have caused widespread devastation across the province, particularly affecting the northern entrance of Al Hudaydah City, the provincial capital. 

The Houthi-affiliated media outlet, Sabah News Agency, reported on Friday that the flash floods have submerged hundreds of houses and severely damaged infrastructure, including agricultural lands. The flooding has also washed away several roads, leading to a significant breakdown in communication and transportation in many areas.

The United Nations has raised alarms over the ongoing monsoon rains in Yemen, which have caused flash floods leading to numerous fatalities and displacing over 250,000 people since July. 

The situation in Yemen has been exacerbated by the ongoing conflict between the Iran-backed Houthi rebels and pro-government forces. The conflict began in 2015 when the Houthi rebels rose to power, forcing Yemen's President Abd Rabbu Mansour Al Hadi to flee to Saudi Arabia. Since then, Yemen has been embroiled in a prolonged civil war, which has severely damaged the country’s infrastructure and healthcare system, creating one of the world's worst humanitarian crises.

The recent floods add to the misery of Yemen's population, already suffering from a decade-long conflict, with dire consequences for the country's already fragile humanitarian situation. International organizations continue to appeal for aid and support to mitigate the impact of the ongoing disaster and help the displaced populations.
