[00:00:02] Yemen -
the world’s worst humanitarian disaster اليمن –
أسوأ كارثة
إنسانية في
العالم [00:00:10] "فيما
تقصف قوات من أغنى
الدول العربية
دون رحمة أهدافاً
في واحد من أفقر
تلك الدول، يهدد
الجوع والمرض
جيلاً بأكمله". [00:00:55] If
something’s not done soon literally hundreds of thousands of children will
die ما لم يتم
اتخاذ
إجراءات
سريعة فقد
يعني ذلك موت
مئات الآلاف
من الأطفال
خلال الأشهر
الأربعة أو
الخمسة
المقبلة. [00:01:00] The
hunger, death and disease rampant here are not accidents of nature. الجوع
والموت
والمرض
المتفشي
هنا، ليس من
فعل الطبيعة. [00:01:11] This
crisis is a direct consequence of the way the war is being fought. [00:01:18] …and now there’s a deadly new threat: Cholera. .. والآن،
هناك خطر
قاتل جديد:
الكوليرا. |

UPSOT (signing prescriptions) [00:01:39] Al Thawra General Hospital in the city of Hudaydah… مستشفى
الثورة
العام في
مدينة
الحديدة.. [00:01:43] It’s a
chaotic place at the best of times. إنه مكان
فوضوي في
أحسن الأوقات. These,
though, are the worst of times ولكن هذه هي
أسوأ
الأوقات. [00:01:57] In the
eye of the storm, Dr Abdallah al-Zouheiri الدكتور
عبدالله
الزهيري هو
في قلب
العاصفة. UPSOT: [00:02:03] I met
him here last year, when the hospital was overwhelmed with patients from the
villages who were dying of starvation… إلتقيته
العام
الماضي،
عندما كان
المستشفى
مكتظاً
بمرضى جاءوا
من القرى
وكانوا
يموتون من
الجوع.. UPSOT: [00:02:12] Today
it’s worse than ever… الوضع
اليوم أسوأ
من أي وقت مضى... [00:02:17] I see it becoming much worse; it could change from malnutrition to
starvation, on a very large scale. This could happen. Malnutrition is now affecting the working class. Soon no-one will have
access to food and everybody will be affected. [00:02:30] And now patients infected with deadly cholera are
turning up here. والآن،
يتوافد على
المستشفى
مرضى مصابون
بوباء
الكوليرا
القاتل. [00:02:37] Dr al-Zouheir takes me to
where the new arrivals are treated – well away from the main hospital. قادني
الدكتور
الزهيري إلى
حيث يعالج
المرضى
الجدد –
بعيداً عن
مبنى
المستشفى
الرئيسي. [00:02:45] Nawal: They say that up-to 1,800 people have died from cholera, is
that right? [00:02:50] Dr. No, it’s much more than that. So many have died and are unaccounted
for. //Like that lady back there,// Her mother just
died in the village but it wasn’t recorded. |

[00:03:18] What price a childhood in Yemen? What price a
child’s life…? يا له من
ثمن تدفعه
الطفولة في
اليمن؟ يا له
من ثمن لحياة
طفل..؟ [00:03:24] I was born here. After leaving, I returned home
every year, to visit my family. لقد
وُلدت هنا.
وبعد مغادرة
البلاد، كنت
أعود إليها
كل عام
لزيارة
أسرتي. [00:03:30] In March 2015, a 10 nation coalition led by Saudi
Arabia, and backed by the US and the UK started bombing Yemen. في مارس/
آذار 2015، بدأ
تحالف من عشر
دول تقوده المملكة
العربية
السعودية
وبدعم من
الولايات المتحدة
وبريطانيا،
بقصف اليمن. [00:03:42] They came to reinstate the government that was
pushed out by rebels, called the Houthis – who receive support from Iran. جاءوا
لإعادة
الحكومة
التي أطاح
بها
المتمردون
الحوثيون –
والذين
يتلقون
دعماً من
إيران. [00:03:48] Since then I’ve covered the fighting, the bombing
– and then the starvation منذ ذلك
الحين، قمت
بتغطية
القتال، والقصف
– ثم المجاعة. [00:04:00] The suffering of ordinary people is a
direct consequence of the way this war is being fought. معاناة
الناس
العاديين هي
نتيجة
مباشرة للطريقة
التي تجري
بها الحرب. [00:04:09] Both sides are using control of food
and fuel as a weapon. فكلا
الجانبين
يستخدم
السيطرة على
الغذاء والوقود
كسلاح في
الحرب. [00:04:13] The latest result is the biggest outbreak of cholera ever recorded.
500,000 people have been infected and millions more are at risk. وآخر
نتائج ذلك هو
أكبر تفشٍ
لوباء
الكوليرا تم
تسجيله
قاطبة، حيث
وصل عدد
المصابين به
إلى نصف
مليون شخص،
فيما يهدد
الوباء
ملايين آخرين. [00:04:24] So I’m heading up to the Highlands to see for myself
where this outbreak started: لذا
توجهت إلى المناطق
الجبلية
لأرى بنفسي
أين بدأ
انتشار هذا
الوباء: [00:04:30] And this is what Cholera does to a man… وهذا ما
تفعله
الكوليرا
بالإنسان.. |
Nawal on a Beach / Driving shots Think piece/Mission Statement |
[00:04:33] It’s horrific. Just look at the
situation. This is how it is. There are people who have money and can get by.
And there are those who have nothing. People like me. [00:04:57] Nawal; Do you have children? AH: No. No. Thank God [00:05:06] If I did have children they would be
dead by now. |
ABDULLAH
HASSAN Cholera
Victim |
[00:05:14] And this is what Cholera does to a child. وهذا
ما تفعله
الكوليرا
بالطفل. [00:05:19] Urjuan looks newborn – but she
is 17 months old – and she has
caught cholera… تبدو
وكأنها
حديثة
الولادة –
ولكن عمرها 17
شهراً – لقد
أُصيبت
بالكوليرا.. For the second time. للمرة
الثانية. |
GVs |
[00:05:28] Um: How can I not fear for her? She’s my child, how can a human not
fear for their child. [00:05:36] Right now it feels like she’s got the illness all over again, the
cholera. It’s happened so fast, because she isn’t able to fight her
condition. She is weak and this is damaging her even more. [00:05:49] Nawal: Is there no one there to help you? [00:05:52] Um: There’s no one to help us, everyone is after their own, and
helping themselves. In this financial war, everyone is selfish. [00:05:59] Urjuan’s mother walked for a
day to get her baby to this clinic – nowadays she can’t afford transport. سارت أم
أرجوان
مشياً على قدميها
ليوم كامل،
لكي تحمل
طفلتها إلى
هذه العيادة –
فهي لا تقدر
على دفع أجرة
المواصلات
هذه الأيام. [00:06:07] So in the end I don’t ask or anything I just wait patiently, thanking
and praising God. Sometimes she’s hungry, and she wants to breastfeed but there’s
no milk in me. [00:06:20] I know she’s hungry but all I can do is mix the wheat for her, and
feed it to her. But she vomits it out straight away. She can’t keep it in her
stomach. |
|
[00:06:33] This nurse
tells me it’s cases like Urjuan’s that show the authorities
are failing to deal with the problem at source by chlorinating the water, and finding out where the bacteria is spreading
from. تخبرني هذه
الممرضة أن
الحالات
المشابهة لحالة
أرجوان تبين
كيف أن
السلطات
تخفق في التعامل
مع مصدر
المشكلة،
بإضافة الكلور
إلى الماء
ومعرفة
الأماكن
التي تنتشر
البكتيريا
منها. |
|
[00:06:44] Nurse: In my opinion all the medical teams need to move. Trained medics
must get up to the places where the cholera originates. [00:06:52] Because the appearance of this many cases proves there’s an epidemic
in certain regions. Immediate deployment is essential, but sadly the authorities
have no money to pay for staff or intervention. [00:07:05] Nawal: Are they attempting to deal
with the source of the problem? [00:07:09] Nurse: No. The only thing they’ve done. They told me that they have been
informing people by loud speakers that the area is infected, and that the
well is infected. And that they must boil the water. |
NURSE MANSOURIYA

[00:07:26] The
nurse tells me of a village where the latest outbreak started. So that’s
where I’m heading. أخبرتني
الممرضة عن
قرية تفشى
فيها الوباء
مؤخراً،
فتوجهت
إليها. [00:07:35] On the
way up, I come across this scene: وفي طريقي،
وجدت هذا
المشهد أمامي: [00:07:40] They
say “water is life.” يقولون
"الماء هو
الحياة". But in
Yemen it can also mean death. [00:07:48] Cholera
a water born bacteria spreads through faeces contaminated public supplies,
like wells, standpipes and reservoirs ولكنه في اليمن
قد يعني
الموت.
فالكوليرا
هي بكتيريا تنتقل
عبر الماء
وتنتشر من
خلال مصادر
المياه
الملوثة،
كالآبار والحنفيات
العامة
والخزانات. [00:08:07] It has
killed 20 people in the settlement I’m going to now. لقد
أودت
الكوليرا
بحياة عشرين
شخصاً في القرية
التي أتوجه
إليها الآن. |

[00:08:17] Man: This area is called Daribrayah and 28 Cholera cases were taken to the
hospital over the last two days. Because their rooms are close together, there’s poor
sanitation and hygiene. The Cholera spread quickly. Plus we are too far away
from the aid agencies. |

[00:08:42] Nawal: Tell me in detail what has
happened? [00:08:46] Abdullah: I’ve just had diarrhoea and
vomiting, because we were drinking from the well. [00:08:46] Nawal: how long has it been? [00:08:53] Abdullah: since the day before yesterday. [00:08:55] Nawal: Are you taking any medication? Abdullah: Just drinking de-contaminated water. [00:09:00] Nawal: Why don’t you go to the hospital? Abdullah: We don’t have the money for transport. [00:09:05] Nawal: Why don’t you drink bottled water? Abdullah: We fill our bottles from the well. |
Nawal and ABDULLAH, a sick man on a cot. |
[00:09:17] This is
the same well Abdullah drank from. هذا هو نفس
البئر الذي
شرب منه
عبدالله. It’s
still contaminated with cholera. إنه لايزال
ملوثاً
بالكوليرا. [00:09:25] The
people here have no alternative source – it's a potential death sentence for
the whole community. الناس

[00:09:47] I’ve come back to Hudaydah General Hospital… عدت
إلى مستشفى
الحديدة
العام.. …to the familiar
scenes of exhaustion and despair. ..
إلى مشاهد
الإرهاق
واليأس
المألوفة. (PTC)
[00:09:58] All these people have spent all the money they have… كل
هؤلاء الناس
أنفقوا كل ما
كان لديهم من
مال.. [00:10:06] …Now the electricity is off… so all the machines are off,
all the incubators are off, all the oxygen has stopped – and this happens all
the time… ..
الآن إنقطعت
الكهرباء
فتوقفت كل
الأجهزة عن
العمل.. كل
الحاضنات
متوقفة.. توقف

وهذا يحدث
طوال الوقت. |
Nawal
surrounded by anxious mothers |
[00:10:20] This morning I meet Alaa and his family. إلتقيت
هذا الصباح
علاء وأسرته. He’s just three years
old and lives around the corner… عمره
ثلاث سنوات
فقط ويسكن بالقرب
من المستشفى.. [00:10:26] His dad works in the
local factory. ويعمل
والده في
مصنع محلي. [00:10:30] Dad: The day before yesterday he had a relapse. That
was on Sunday. I’d seen him get thinner and thinner and go downhill. [00:10:45] Alaa is has severe malnutrition. يعاني
علاء من سوء
التغذية
الشديد. [00:10:51] Nawal: how do you
feel when you see all these children arriving? Nurse: Our hearts
break for them. Today it’s them tomorrow it’s us. [00:11:05] We, who live here, will
soon get to this stage. Malnutrition has come into our homes too – even
though we have jobs. Our kids, our neighbors’ kids, everyone is becoming
malnourished. |

[00:11:21] 24 hours later and Alaa has deteriorated badly… بعد
24 ساعة،
تدهورت صحة
علاء بشكل
كبير.. |
|
[00:11:29] Nawal:
Tell me what happened to Alaa? Why hasn’t he been
transferred? [00:11:34] Nurse:
Paediatric Intensive Care only has 8 beds. And all the beds are being used.
There are no empty beds. We’ve been waiting for a bed since 2pm – and it’s
7pm now… Until now there hasn’t been an empty bed. [00:11:53] Because children don’t just come in with
malnutrition, they come in with other complications. This child, for example,
doesn’t only suffer malnutrition, he is suffering from pneumonia and his
white cell count is 21,000. That is a very high count. [00:12:22] Suddenly a bed is found. This may be his best chance for survival. فجأة،
توفر سرير. قد
تكون هذه
أفضل فرصة
لنجاته. Nurse: Is it ready? [00:12:35] Desperately malnourished, Alaa lies between
life and death. يرقد علاء
وهو بين
الحياة
والموت. [00:12:56] Yemen’s hunger is a result of food shortages and soaring prices. إرتفعت

+ Alaa’s family grouping. Boy now looks worse. |
[00:13:03] So I’m heading into Hudaydah’s Port for some
answers… ولذا فقد
توجهت إلى
ميناء
الحديدة
بحثاً عن أجوبة. [00:13:08] It’s the most important harbour in rebel territory. 20 million
people’s food supplies are supposed to come through here. But now it’s barely
operating. إنه أهم
ميناء في
الأراضي
التي يسيطر
عليها الحوثيون.
يُفترض أن
تصل عبره
إمدادات
غذائية لعشرين
مليون شخص،
ولكن
الميناء
بالكاد يعمل. [00:13:18] Bombing and a blockade imposed by the Saudi coalition has impeded the
access of food, fuel and aid… فقد أعاق حصار
فرضه
التحالف
السعودي على
الميناء وصول
المواد
الغذائية
والوقود
والمساعدات.. [00:13:25] The Saudis justify this by saying that the
Iranians are smuggling weapons to their Houthi allies through Hudaydah. يبرر السعوديون ذلك بالقول إن الإيرانيين يقومون بتهريب الأسلحة إلى حلفائهم الحوثيين عبر ميناء الحديدة. [00:13:33] The Port Manager is a Houthi political
appointee and a powerful man. He denies the arms smuggling allegations. وينفي
مدير
الميناء،
وهو رجل قوي
ومعين من قبل
الحوثيين ، الإتهامات
المتعلقة
بتهريب
الأسلحة. |
Nawal
driving to port SEQ, Up
into Houthi Port Boss’ Office Port
Boss takes his time to answer Nawal |
[00:13:43] PB: The enemy is in control of
the sea, so how can the weapons be brought in? The ships that are brought in
are searched. The approach to the port is long and no ship can enter without
The Coalition knowing about it. [00:13:59] This is simply an excuse to besiege
the people of Yemen and hurt us here, as the coalition has failed elsewhere. [00:14:10] They now use economic and
humanitarian pressure to try to control us. |
HOUTHI PORT BOSS |
[00:14:16] Evidence suggests the Houthis have been profiteering from the blockade
– and scoring political points by playing the victim. يقول بعض
المحللين إن
الحوثيين
يتربحون من الحصار
ويحققون
مكاسب
سياسية بلعب
دور الضحية. So they’re happy for it to continue. ولذا
فإنهم سعداء
باستمراره. |

[00:14:26] The UN’s World Food Programme
says both sides in Yemen’s war should do more to put the needs of civilians
first. ويقول

[00:14:33] Beasley:
Well, we’re trying to work with all parties involved, engaged in the
conflict. And so, to some degree they all help and to some degree we have
problems with each of the groups. بيزلي:
نحن نحاول
العمل مع
كافة
الأطراف
المعنية
بالنزاع.
وكلها
متعاونة إلى
حد ما ، ولدينا
مشاكل مع كل
طرف من هذه
الأطراف. [00:14:43] Hudaydah Port’s huge cranes have been bombed out of action. But
their 4 replacements – already paid for by the United States – have been
blocked. أدى قصف
رافعات
ميناء
الحديدة
الهائلة إلى
تعطيلها عن
العمل. ولكن مُنع
وصول 4 رافعات
بديلة دفعت
الولايات
المتحدة
ثمنها
بالفعل. [00:14:51] Beasley:
We loaded up the cranes, we brought them… and only the blockade by the Saudis
and their allied forces blocked us from bringing the cranes in – so we had to
send the cranes back. بيزلي:
قمنا بتحميل
الرافعات
وجلبناها،
ومنعنا
الحصار الذي
تفرضه
السعودية
وحلفاؤها من
جلب
الرافعات
ولذا فقد
اضطررنا
لإعادتها. [00:15:03] Nawal:
If something isn’t done soon, what do you feel will happen? نوال: ما
لم يُتخذ
إجراء سريع،
فما الذي
تعتقد أن يحدث؟ [00:15:07] Beasley:
If this port is bombed and completely made useless, literally hundreds of
thousands of children will die and millions of people will die along with it. بيزلي:
إذا تم قصف
هذا الميناء
وتعطيله تماماً
عن العمل،
فهذا يعني
عملياً أن
مئات الآلاف
من الأطفال
سيموتون
وسيموت
الملايين من
الناس معهم. |
DAVID BEASLEY Director: World Food
Programme |
[00:15:19] 90% of Cholera deaths
- and the worst cases of the starvation - are in Houthi controlled areas. [00:15:25] The United States and
Britain are Saudi Arabia’s key allies. They are complicit in this war. They
provide top level political support, and have vetoed war-crime investigations
at the UN. الولايات
المتحدة وبريطانيا
هما حليفتان
رئيسيتان
للسعودية. [00:15:39] They’ve also provided
intelligence… and they’re the main suppliers of the billions of dollars of advanced
weapons that have devastated Yemen. كما أنهما

I didn’t know if it was blood or fire, I couldn’t make sense of it.
Everything went dark. The side of my face and ear were burning, I couldn’t
see. When I look around the whole boat was on fire. [00:17:03] Nawal:
Maybe the people who attacked you didn’t realise you were fishermen?
[00:17:10] They
told us to put up a white flag, so that their planes would know that we were
fishermen. We fly the white flag and we take it down when we reach shore. [00:17:29] Nawal:
Who is responsible for this war? FM:
Saudi Arabia and its allies are to blame! Is it our fault? Are we fishermen
in the wrong? Did we go to the Saudi border? [00:17:45] Ibrahim lost his two
sons, his brother and a nephew in the attack. فقد
إبراهيم
ولديه وأخيه
وابن أخيه في
الهجوم. [00:17:50] As
I was swimming, I thought if I got tired my sons would carry me. I didn’t
think my sons would die and I would survive. I wanted them to live. They were
the ones who would support the family, not me. I’m old and tired. But this is
what God has decided. |

[00:18:10] 15 people across three
extended families now depend on him for survival. الآن يعتمد 15

a devastating impact on people’s every day life here. لقد

profitable farm, but it collapsed when the coastal blockade cut off the
export routes. كان هذا

[00:19:25] Starving children are
a horrifying – and horrifyingly common – sight across Yemen. But this crisis
is also ruining people in ways you can’t see الأطفال
الذين يتعرضون
للمجاعة هم
مشهد مرعب
ومألوف إلى
حد الرعب في
عموم اليمن.
ولكن الأزمة
تدمر الناس بطرق
لا تستطيع أن
تراها. [00:19:35] The working class and
even civil servants now have no jobs, no incomes, and are going hungry. الموظفون
من الطبقة
العاملة في
اليمن لم تعد
لديهم وظائف
أو دخل، وهم
يتعرضون
للجوع. [00:19:46] Since the Yemeni government
moved the Central Bank from the rebel held capital, millions of state
employees – including medics and sanitation workers – haven’t been paid for
months. عندما
نقلت
الحكومة
اليمنية
البنك
المركزي من
المناطق

currency is making it impossible for them to weather this disaster. يقوم

our money to get out of here but we have nothing [00:20:51] Even the people round here in the Displacement Camps
come out and are given aid and food, but the people who live in the brick
houses like us, get nothing. [00:21:00] Imagine how many children will
die and how many adults will go crazy if they can’t find food and drink for
their children and families. [00:21:08] Some are considering suicide, [00:21:15] And this is unbearable. We have
never experienced anything like this in Yemen before. |

[00:21:24] There are many ways
to die in Yemen. هناك
طرق كثيرة
للموت في
اليمن. I’m suddenly called
back to the Central Hospital by Alaa’s mother… فجأة
دعتني أم
علاء للعودة
إلى
المستشفى
المركزي. [00:21:32] She tells me I need “to film the truth about what’s happening to
Yemen’s children…” طلبت
مني أن "أصور
حقيقة ما
يجري لأطفال
اليمن.." |

[00:21:38] When I arrive it’s a
disaster. عندما
وصلت، كانت
هناك كارثة. Alaa spent the night in the Intensive Care Unit… أمضى
علاء الليلة
الماضية في
وحدة
العناية
المركزة. … fighting for his
life ...
يصارع الموت. |

[00:22:05] I
need you to trust in God, my husband. Alaa has passed away, He
is with the angels [00:22:18] He
only made a short visit to this earth. We
shouldn’t cry Come
now, let’s take our son. [00:22:25] Let’s take Alaa to
be buried |
Alaa is dead. |
[00:22:29] Here is the body of
another Yemeni child. [00:22:37] Another statistic in
a forgotten war? طفل
آخر ضحية كارثة
اليمن التي
صنعها
البشر؟ رقم
آخر في حرب
منسية؟ [00:22:40] Nawal: I’m sorry for your loss. [00:22:42] That child had a
name. They all have names. كان
لهذا الطفل
إسم. كلهم
لديهم أسماء. He was called Alaa Yassin and he was three years old. كان
اسمه علاء
ياسين وكان
عمره ثلاث
سنوات. [00:22:51] He was born into a war
– and the war claimed him. وُلد
في حرب راح
ضحيتها. Alaa never raised a weapon in his life – he barely raised a murmur as he died. لم
يشهر علاء
سلاحاً بوجه
أحد في حياته
وبالكاد
أطلق أنيناً
عند موته. [00:23:03] He had a family that
loved him. He had friends he played with. كانت
لديه أسرة
أحبته
وأصدقاء كان
يلعب معهم. [00:23:09] Three days ago he had
a future. قبل
ثلاثة أيام
كان أمامه
مستقبل. And he lost it all. وقد
فقد كل ذلك. |
