SANAA, Dec. 29 (Xinhua) -- Poverty cannot quench the love for sports. In Yemen's Sanaa, some boys are playing football on a makeshift pitch, as football is one of the most popular sports in the war-torn country.
Yemen has been mired in civil war since late 2014. The war has killed tens of thousands of Yemenis, displaced 4 million, and pushed Yemen to the brink of famine.
