The crisis in Yemen continues to unfold with 85,000 children dead since 2015. According to Save the Children, they may have died from starvation or disease.
The estimate was based on data compiled by the United Nations, which has warned that up to 14 million people are at risk of famine in Yemen, where Saudi-backed forces are battling Iran-aligned Huthi rebels.
Save the Children director in Yemen, Tamer Kirolos, said for every child killed by bombs and bullets, dozens are starving from a preventable death.
Hodeida port, the entry point for some 80 per cent of food imports and aid into Yemen, has been under blockade by the Saudi-led coalition backing the government since last year.
