Following six years of war between the Houthis, a rebel group backed by Iran, and a Saudi-led coalition, an estimated 2 million children in Yemen are suffering from starvation, and 3.5 million people have been internally displaced. In "Yemen's COVID Cover-Up," the Yemen-born al-Maghafi returns to her home country to investigate how COVID-19 has impacted these compounding crises. She finds evidence of a far higher death toll than Houthi authorities in the country's north are admitting, and reveals that the Houthi suspension of doctors' salaries, international aid cuts and the Saudi blockade have had a dire impact on Yemeni doctors' ability to treat COVID patients. "Lack of oxygen caused most of the deaths," one doctor tells her. As President Biden commits to ending U.S. support for Saudi offensives in Yemen, this documentary is a powerful look at the situation on the ground.
