Thousands of Somalis and Ethiopians risk their lives every year
crossing the Gulf of Aden to escape from conflict and extreme
poverty. The trip is fraught with danger, as people are exposed
to violence from the smugglers and receive little assistance upon
their arrival in Yemen. In its report “No Choice”, MSF documents 
the conditions of the perilous journey and calls for increased
assistance for the thousands of refugees, asylum seekers and
migrants fleeing their home countries.
