M.A.
The poorest country in the Middle East, Yemen, has been constantly bombed by the region’s richest country Saudi Arabia for nearly three years since the Kingdom first initiated its military campaign on March 26 of 2015.
The daily bombardment led to the worst humanitarian catastrophe in the world as well as an unprecedented outbreak of diseases such as cholera.
According to local Yemeni reports, the Saudi regime and its allies have included hospitals, schools, homes, factories, local markets, universities, bridges, farms and roads in their military targets.
The Saudi-led coalition, backed by the US and UK, has also been imposing an air, sea and land siege on the country, preventing the entry of essential life requirements like medical supplies. Moreover, the siege has consequently led to millions in need of humanitarian aid.
Despite the horrific results of the Saudi war on Yemen, the Kingdom continues to take advantage of the international silence and retains its position although it has achieved no goals it has earlier announced.
In the province of Hajjah, news of killed and wounded civilians have been reported after an air raid targeted, on Sunday, a farm in Al-Jar region in Abss district.
The warplanes of the coalition also launched two raids on a farm in the area of Al-Jar, one of which targeted the house of Ali Siddiq and resulted in the death of his entire family.
In addition, two more airstrikes hit Al-Mazraq region in Hajjah.
In Ibb Province, the Saudi-led coalition conducted 5 raids on the 30 Brigade Camp in the district of Al Sabra.
In Taiz Province, central Yemen, four raids were carried out on Wazran region in Khadair district, and there were reports of casualties. Seven raids were also carried out in the vicinity of Camp Khalid.
In Saada Province, Yemeni Saudi border, the Saudi-led coalition launched three raids on Qahza area in the north of the city, in addition to two air raids striking Wald Masoud region in Sahar district.
Moreover, different areas of the border districts of Razih and Monabeh and the area of Al-Gaw in Ghamar district have been subjected to Saudi rocketry and artillery attacks.
In al-Bayda Province, two raids were carried out on the area of Al-Fadhah in the district of Natta.
Heading to Lahj Province, two raids were waged on Hamala area in Karash district.
In coastal Hodeidah Province, western Yemen, a raid was carried out on al-Marir region in Rass mountain district.
A Saudi-led war began against Yemen on March 26 of 2015, in an attempt to reinstall a Saudi-friendly president, Hadi. Hadi was ousted by the Ansarullah revolutionaries, which enjoy wide public support, and that is when they took control over the country’s affairs with an aim of eliminating foreign intervention or influence over Yemen.
