UN Says 262 Civilians Killed or Injured in Yemen Over Two Months

The United Nations says 262 civilians have been killed or injured in Yemen over a two-month period, highlighting the continuing toll of the conflict on the population.

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said civilians were still paying a heavy price as the fighting continued.
