In the Ahwar district of Abyan, the Cleaning and Improvement Fund removed a large waste dump from the Ahwar General Hospital on October 16, 2026. This operation followed requests from health officials to improve sanitary conditions for patients and staff. During this period, the director of the fund requested urgent repairs for a garbage truck, stating that equipment failure was hindering waste management services in the district.

On November 3, 2026, the Cleaning and Improvement Fund in the Khanfar district launched a campaign in the Jaar area. This effort targeted the removal of accumulated waste and livestock remains from flood paths in the Haffat Qadar Allah area to mitigate health risks, such as mosquito spread and odors, for local residents and students.
