NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
Forced marriages, particularly those involving minors, are a significant concern in some parts of the world, including Yemen, where the practice is often linked to cultural and economic factors. The country has one of the highest rates of child marriage globally, with reports suggesting that many girls are married off before the age of 18. Early marriage can have severe consequences for the health, education, and wellbeing of the girls involved.
