The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center distributed 6,513 food baskets across 12 camps in Yemen as part of its emergency food intervention project, according to a Saudi Press Agency (SPA) report dated October 19, 2026.

The aid benefited 5,087 displaced families, totaling 30,607 individuals.

SPA said the distribution took place in camps located in the governorates of Taiz and Lahij. The assistance covered displaced families in the districts of Maqbanah, Same', Khadir, Mawza, Mokha, and Al-Wazi'iyah in Taiz, as well as Al-Mudaraba, Ras Al-Arah, and Karsh in Lahij.

The same list included the districts of Hays, Al-Jarrahi, Al-Hawk, Beit Al-Faqih, Zabid, and Al-Khawkhah, which SPA listed under Al-Hudaydah governorate, although Al-Hudaydah was not mentioned among the governorates at the start of the report. The list also did not specify any locations in Aden.

SPA described the distribution as part of Saudi Arabia’s ongoing relief and humanitarian efforts, through the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center, to alleviate the suffering of the Yemeni people, support displaced and affected families, and meet their basic food needs.
