For almost a decade a civil war has been grinding on in Yemen, pushing the Arab world’s poorest country to the brink of collapse.
There has been less violence since a ceasefire last year but there is no sign of a deal to end the conflict.
The BBC first featured Ahmed, an 11-year-old boy who is blind, two years ago when he was teaching a class in a bombed-out school close to the front line.
Orla Guerin and her team returned to the city of Taiz to find out how he was getting on.

A very inspiring boy who doesn't let incredible hardships, both personal and those of Yemen, get him down. I remember seeing him the previous time, in 2021, so I'm glad to see him again.
He is a very brave and ambitious young man! I wish him nothing but the best!😁✌
Thank you for sharing this story about such an incredible young person. May peace come to Yemen.
God bless your son.
What an inspiring person ❤ 😊
From this young blind historian, I wish nothing but the best for this young man and his community. The war must end.
Yemen 🇾🇪 ... Long live Palestine 🇵🇸 ... and Long live Pakistan🇵🇰
The war will end when the West stops arming Saudi Arabia against the Yemeni people!
Sorry, the war will continue as planned. Dementia Joe and his cronies are making too much money sending weapons to kill Yemenis to stop now.
What a very brave and courageous young man Ahmed is.. I really wish the best for him and his family.. ❤
A very beautiful child. This story is pure inspiration to me.
You are very brave & strong minded Ahmed ❤❤❤
Thank you BBC for telling us a beautiful truth in one of the greatest horrors in the 21st century... This young man is just a hero to all...
Well done incredible proud of u
He is an incredible boy in war country and he inspiring me. Also I feel so sorrow.
Ya Allah, protect him and shower him with all Your Blessings
And I once hear that gene therapy is somehow useful to treat inherited blindness. Can it be applied to his condition? Please help him more....
Despite war, many handicapped children in Yemen have special talents and ambitions. Ahmed is only one example to all children.
Can’t imagine how happy he was to see the new school! 😁
I feel touched by this news report. All the best to this boy and everyone in his war-torn country!🎉
now this is the kind of news we NEED more of it
Bless him.
Brilliant child.
How humbling for people like me in uk unreal
Great boy
thank you for showing this!!
He is truly an inspiration
Good job❤
Unbelievable, this poor kid is done probably more than most Americans have done
Oh and who else is doing anything for Yemen except watching the news about it?
@@samsmith2635 nobody, but I was in the Peace Corps for a year-and-a-half and I went to Yemen, Oman, Jordan, and Lebanon
Sorry but obviously the only thing he has done was telling the BBC a unique story. He was just the most endearing individual they could find (blind kid) for an interesting report. That's not really doing anything obviously. And what the duck have American individuals to do with this anyway. Why not mention the Portuguese, South Africans or any other random country? How does this thought process go in your head?
This is so beautiful when he said ? I marry city beautiful girl and she make me biscuits ❤ that give me tears in my eyes and big smile ! Hope his every dream come true ❤❤❤
Stop war in Yemen!!
Brave Ahmed..Salam Alekum God bless you...sure Allah will fulfill all your dreams...Insha-Allah a nice beautiful city girl will surely enter your life and she will make you biscuits ...AMEEN
For once, an awesome person doung something good for orhers Why can't everyone do that rather than killing each other?
i wonder what is the cause of blindness in the family??? Can it be fixed as technology and science has had a transformation in recent years..
Great
WE LIVE IN THE UK. WE HAVE NO TIME FOR OTHER COUNTRIES PROBLEMS AS WE ARE DROWNING 😢
Oh wow comments are allowed on this video. Zero respect for the BBC
May god restore peace in Yemen 🇾🇪 love from USA 🇺🇸
How about the US restores peace and not god. Since its the US funding the chaos

Bom dia a todos os guerreiros e guerreiras da BBC London.
Was the bomb supplied by the british?
🤭😂
😀👍
Hell never changes.
Motivated individuals is what makes the difference more than money. Probably better than many UK schools.which we closed down because of a virus harmless to children and are now find they are crumbling through neglect.

From Western weapons sold to Saudi Arabia. Free Julian Assange!!!!!!
those with less always succeed to accomplish more.

The government has really called things more difficult for its citizens, and we can't sit back and bear all the consequences of the bad governance. It's obvious we are headed for hyperinflation,it is always the poor who take the hit.
It's no longer a story that the world is experiencing a global economic downturn, I'm so happy that I've been receiving $64,000 from my $15,000 investment every 8 days
