Lumberjacks load bundles of firewood onto a truck in Khamis Banisaad district of al-Mahweet province, Yemen, June 24, 2021. More than six years of war between the recognised government backed by a Saudi-led coalition and the Houthi movement aligned with Iran has killed tens of thousands of people and left 80% of Yemen's population reliant on aid. The fuel shortages due to a coalition blockade on Houthi-held areas, including limiting access to the main port of Hodeidah, have led businesses and families to swap diesel and gas for firewood. The alliance says the blockade is needed to foil arms smuggling. (Photo by Khaled Abdullah/Reuters)
