The hidden war of Yemen

"The names of the dead did not even make news in the local press in Aden. This form of death is now commonplace amid a war so hidden that foreign journalists are forced to smuggle themselves by boat into the country to report on an ongoing conflict that the U.N. says has killed more than 4,500 people and left another 23,500 wounded."

PS I just did not like the opening sentence of the article; ridden with Orientalist cliches.
