At least ten were killed among children and women when warplanes belonging to the U.S.-Saudi coalition carried out a series of airstrikes on residential areas in Sana `s and the northwestern province of Sa’ada

Saudi fighter jets conducted aerial assaults against gas Station in sixty street western Sana`a, killing 4 civilians among women with her infants and injured 10 civilians among children

In Sada`a, which Riyadh regime presses ahead with its atrocious bombardment campaign against its southern neighbor, Saudi military aircraft carried out airstrikes against a subway, killing three children and injured 15 civilians, an additional, a child and two and two men were killed by Saudi rocket and artillery fires against border area

The President of the Yemeni Council for Rights and Freedoms, Ali Ali Al-Mutamiaz, said in a press conference this week, that Sa’ada governorate has been subjected to the worst crimes and violations by Saudi-led Coalition, adding ” Seventy massacres have been committed by Saudi-led Coalition over three years of aggression against Yemen,”

” 8000 were killed and injured in Sa`ada in additional, 51 health centers and hospital were destroyed as well as 267 schools and 84 generators and power station as well,” Al-Mutamiaz added

Meanwhile, Saudi-led Coalition announced the military attack in the country’s western coastline Hodeida. As a result, tens of thousands of people have displaced, escaping from the front line, according to a statement of senior crisis response adviser at Amnesty International last week

Mark Lowcock, the UN emergency relief coordinator has expressed, in a statement read out to a Geneva briefing on Friday, concern over the decline of food imports to Yemen amid restrictions put in place by the Saudi regime

“I am particularly concerned about the recent decline of commercial food imports through the Red Sea ports said Mark Lowcock, warning that a further 10 million Yemenis could be at risk of starvation by the year’s end

Lwcock said commercial food and fuel imports remained “well short of pre-blockade averages.” Added “If conditions do not improve, a further 10 million people will fall into this category by the end of the year,” he warned

Confidence among commercial shippers has eroded due to delays, “including as a result of inspections undertaken by the Saudi-led coalition after these vessels have been cleared by UNVIM,” Lowcock said, referring to a UN verification system

The UN aid chief also called on the government of former Yemeni President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi “to take active steps to boost commercial imports of food, fuel, and humanitarian supplies through all Yemen’s ports

In one of the deadliest air raids, Saudi warplanes last month targeted a wedding ceremony in Hajjah several times, killing almost 50 people and wounding 55 others. Saudi jets also carried out raids on the ambulances transporting the casualties to local hospitals

Saudi Arabia and its allies launched the war on Yemen in March 2015. The Yemeni Ministry of Human Rights announced in a statement on March 25 that the Saudi-led war had left 600,000 civilians dead and injured until then.
