Yemen

Critical
AI Analysis ยท Updated daily

Yemen is experiencing a critical humanitarian and energy crisis, with a risk score of 95/100, exacerbated by its 100% oil import dependency and direct Hormuz exposure. Gasoline prices are soaring to $1.12/L, and fuel reserves are critically low at just 5 days, leading to severe unavailability in many areas. The country faces a critical food risk, compounded by a staggering 95% increase in fertilizer prices, threatening agricultural output and deepening food insecurity. The outlook for Yemen is dire, with no immediate relief in sight for its catastrophic fuel and humanitarian situation.
