Reflecting on US-Saudi Unforgeable Massacres, Holocaust Continues in Yemen

Yemen:   Seven years of futile war on Yemen have passed, and the US-Saudi coalition continues to commit massacres against thousands of defenseless civilians, targets children, steals wealth, brutally destroys homes, markets and infrastructure, and imposes a land, sea and air blockade to rob all Yemenis.

 

In the latest reports of the number of Yemeni victims as a result of the Saudi aggression which were issued on January 25, 2022, the Minister of Public Health and Population in the Sana’a government, dr. Taha Al-Mutawakel, announced that the number of victims reached 47,000, between martyrs and wounded, adding that the coalition’s crimes against the Yemeni people would be "a disgrace to the United Nations, its organizations and the international community."

 

Yemeni Children Face All Kinds of Violations

Since the beginning of the aggression, the Yemeni children have been subjected to various types of violations, from killing, detention in the prisons of the aggression, and being deprived of their schools and health care, which has led to diseases, epidemics and deformities, as well as various psychological effects, despite The Geneva Convention of 1949 and its Additional Protocols of 1977 which set out rules protecting children.

According to the statistics of “Entesaf” Organization for Women and Children’s Rights, there were about 600,000 premature infants who needed fuel to run nurseries and keep them alive, and “more than 400,000 Yemeni children are suffering from severe malnutrition, 80,000 of them are threatened with death,” noting that “out of 1,000 births, more than 27 children die annually.”

The organization confirmed that "more than 3,000 children have heart defects," explaining that "the coalition countries have prohibited the introduction of electrical devices for heart patients, and thousands of patients face the risk of death as a result of this."

The coalition of aggression does not hesitate in its crimes to bomb schools and target hospitals, so that Yemenis are afraid of sending their children to schools or transferring them to hospitals if they need hospitalization.

 

The massacres and violations committed by the Saudi coalition against the children of Yemen due to the bombing and the siege, are so many others, but there are many massacres and cases that are unforgetable. Here we present only the most prominent violations:
