Escalating clashes between Yemen's Houthi forces and Saudi Arabia have forced large numbers of Yemenis out of their homes.

With little time to pack, people grabbed only a few essentials and left in haste, hoping to find somewhere relatively safe.

In just two weeks since clashes erupted between the Saudi-backed Yemeni government forces and Iran-backed Houthi group, more than 112,000 people have been displaced across Aden, Hudaydah, Abyan and Taiz, according to the UN.
