HAJJAH PROVINCE, Yemen - Before Yemen’s war broke out four years ago Ali Muhammad used to cross the border into Saudi Arabia to work, joining thousands of other Yemenis from his poor, mountainous region.

Yemen’s conflict, which the United Nations has described as the world’s worst humanitarian disaster, has pushed what was already one of the poorest Arab states to the brink of famine. Around 80 percent of Yemen’s population now needs some form of humanitarian assistance, according to the U.N. With a poorly resourced local clinic unable to take him in, a health worker drove the toddler to another center where he was weighed and fed as the parents could not afford transport.

The father has man boobs for god's sake...

What is going on REUTERS !!

The photo is clearly infunce that the appear man is not the father of this little kid which resluted that news is not accurate

maggieNYT He looks well fleshed.

Fake news

The father looks so well fed though

You're going to keep lying And your media is a liar And like President Trump said Fake news💦

Readers' ability to detect lies in the tweet shows the public has become more aware, and there are news accounts that deliberately fabricate stories

Famine does not differentiate between father and son La famine ne fait pas la différence entre père et fils 飢荒不區分父子

The father is recuperative while his kid gaunt 🤐

Paul Joseph Goebbels is hired by reuters

Reuters is fake news as I spect

😭😓

Funny thing though The father is as fat as a DUTCH COW !!

Picture doesn’t work. Child starving but father looks damn healthy.give his food to the child!

He needs to share his food looks like he has been eating well

well there 5m Yemen's working in Saudi Arabia but if you ask me why we should let them work in our country in the first place 😂 we have war with them i don't remember if USA let nazi work in there country in ww2

FAKE NEWS + FAKE MEDIA= ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE.

The toddler looks ti be the only one of the 2 missing meals.

maggieNYT damn🙁

Ohnoohno no not necessary. The child suffers only by the selfish greed of stupid apathetic behavior of thoughtless males and incomplete women. STOP IT your behavior is evil. SHARE LIFE!!!

Dear God!

Children burn more fat and require more nutrients to maintain weight, while adults contain 'storages' of fat that help them survive in times with less. That is why children and old people tend to die first. The comments on this post are ridiculous.

A country leader should be ashamed to see its own population in such a shape, and those who are fighting those wars in the name of mostly $ should be cursed for the worst

maggieNYT If that was real, then why is the father so well fed?

maggieNYT In America we feed the kids first.

UNICEF

Baby starves while father continues to eat.....

Has the father been sucking his toddlers blood? 🤷🏿‍♂️

GOP: 'Well then he should just get a better job.' Privilege: 'The dad doesn't look like he's starving.'

Something is wrong !

Lots of funny comments on fake media propaganda

maggieNYT Not seen on mainstream TV news here. Guess it is not a sexy topic..or might reflect poorly on the MIC...that owns us?

SaudiArabia you are monsters so is POTUS who arms them. Republicans this starving child is your fault!!! Stop it now!!! VoteThemOut

What is happening here? The man/'father' seemz very well-fed. Almost over-fed.

maggieNYT Lol and he is overweight

But the dad looking like hes not missing any meals

do you hire 16 year olds to make your news now? The father is VERY well fed, the headline is a lie or false and misleading

maggieNYT He seems to be quite well fed. He should share some of his food with his “son”

Thousands of kids in Yemen are suffering from malnutrition & diseases.

shocking 😔

Tell the Ayatollahs. They are funding it

Horrible.

Why is he healthy tho

maggieNYT Shocking

And why is Saudi Arabia an American ally again c

😭😭😭😭 But how is the father maintaining his belly?

😭😭😭😭😭😭

he looks pretty well fed, tho. i hope someone saves that child from their awful parents.

The man looks healthy though. No wonder his kid is starving.

Maybe the film crew could give this kid a little something to eat, ?

It's these kind of situation that make me wonder whether there is any humanity left. So thugs will fight and make babies starve to death?

Now talk about the cholera epidemic!

Shame on those who arm and support the Saudi-Emaratis head choppers for waging war on Yemenis . Shame on the US and its puppets like UK , France, Germany and others

When will the world ban together and say enough is enough? So many innocent people dead.

Bring all the troops home stop policing the world. No entangling alliances. Etc.

😠

Is it Yemen’s war or the Evil Saudi regimes war on them?

😢 Terrible.

Manipulated by Sudi Buffalo Prince.

It is absolutely disgusting that democratic rich nations have been supporting the death and starvation of Yemenis for years. I wish people were more important than profits, but apparently not.

le terrorisme houthi est le principal reason de tout cela

I’m depressed by seeing this picture. What has the world done to that poor little child.

😭😭 heartbreaking.

Is this where Humanity has reached... Very sad for humanity...

😢

Your report lack of truth and reality, Saudi Arabia has over a million of Yemenis working in the kingdom as of now. UN has to Stop Iran-aligned Houthi from stealing the humanitarian aid that are supplied by KSA and others to the Yemenis people. KSA intervention based on UN 2216

So sad to hear those situation ....... Yeman's war !!!

Yemen is turning into a war of Conscience? Saudis in it to address their paranoia. US & UK in it for arms, $$ & Jobs. Closing their eyes to human misery being perpetuated in an ancient land. UAE in Yemen, bifurcating the South as it is doing in Libya, Somalia, Sudan.

I’ve been to Yemen. Seen these areas first hand. I’ve seen the Ghat fields worked by 5-6 women while a single male sits under a tree. I’ve seen the sheik compounds surrounded by walls and razor wire. Another country that needs more Education and less poverty

Poor people. How even people in one religion can’t live in harmony?

The mom looks well fed. Could it be hmm they’re starving these children on purpose. I think soo

100 spicetokens

Whose war is this? Saudis, UAE, US or UK? Iran is the bogeyman to justify Saudi paranoia. While Yemenis bleed.

Dear reuters is there any means of helping this poor kid directly? I was terrified by their story. I wish to put a little smile on their face.

Donald Trump vetoed a bill, passed by the House and Senate (led by BernieSanders) to end US support for one side of this civil war. We aren’t promoting peace, we are promoting victory through violence. This is going to be a moral stain comparable to the Contras in Nicaragua.

Family of mom charged after toddler is killed by car calls for charges against driverAn 18-year-old Houston mom was charged with endangering a child after her toddler was fatally struck by a car. It may be impossible to see a small child from a car, because of the child's height. That's why many parents have unfortunately reversed their car, hitting their own child, not knowing the child was even near the car. Never being able to see the child, despite taking every care. She was negligent. She left her son UNSUPERVISED in a parking lot. Go to jail. Breh. I’ve seen this in China videos or other shithole countries, but here?!?!?
