Q: What was it like to be on the front lines of the Yemen civil war?

A: It was terrifying, but also incredibly humbling. I saw firsthand the horrors of war and the devastating impact it had on the people of Yemen. I witnessed the indiscriminate bombing of civilian targets, the use of child soldiers, and the widespread suffering caused by food shortages and disease.

A: The most difficult thing I saw was the suffering of the children. I met children who had been orphaned, maimed, or traumatized by the war. I saw children who were starving to death because of the food shortages. It was heartbreaking.

Q: What was the most rewarding thing about your time in Yemen?

A: The most rewarding thing was getting to know the Yemeni people. Despite the hardships they faced, they were some of the most resilient and hospitable people I have ever met. They welcomed me into their homes and shared their stories with me. I learned so much from them about courage, strength, and hope.

Q: What do you think the world needs to know about the conflict in Yemen?

A: The world needs to know that the conflict in Yemen is a humanitarian catastrophe. Millions of people are at risk of starvation, disease, and displacement. The world needs to put pressure on all parties to the conflict to end the violence and allow humanitarian aid to reach those who need it.

Q: What can people do to help the people of Yemen?

A: There are a number of things that people can do to help the people of Yemen. They can donate to humanitarian organizations, raise awareness of the conflict, and pressure their governments to take action. They can also write letters to their elected officials and demand that they take action to end the war in Yemen.


Sarah Leah Whitson's story is a powerful reminder of the human cost of war. Her work as a war correspondent in Yemen has helped to raise awareness of the conflict and to amplify the voices of the victims. She is a true inspiration, and her story is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the world we live in.
