UN Undersecretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Mark Lowcock on Thursday rung alarm over Yemen's economy amid fears for a COVID-19 outbreak. In a virtual briefing to the UN Security Council, he warned that the disruption of imports and the expected drop of remittances as a result of COVID-19, as well as the drying up of foreign exchange as a result of lower oil prices, will bring disasters.
