A youth-led movement in Hawke's Bay will march in a peace walk this week to call on governments to take action over a humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
Rise for Lives is a youth-led peace and human rights movement which is organising peace marches in nine cities around New Zealand this weekend.
According to Unicef the Yemen crisis is the largest humanitarian crisis in the world with more than 24 million people in need of humanitarian assistance since conflict escalated in March 2015.
Recently, Air New Zealand apologised after it was revealed it had been helping the Saudia Arabian military during the conflict.
1 News reported that the national carrier's business unit, Gas Turbines, which specialises in servicing military marine engines and turbines, has been supporting the Saudi Navy.
