Civilian Injured in Munabbih… Saudi Enemy Targets Civilians in Saada

In a scene that has become a grim routine along the border strip, and within the framework of a systematic aggressive policy, a civilian was injured today by gunfire from the Saudi enemy army in Munabbih District, Saada Governorate. This new crime adds to a long record of daily attacks against unarmed civilians, amid international silence that amounts to complicity.

Media sources in Saada Governorate reported that Saudi enemy forces opened fire opposite the Al-Sheikh area in the border district of Munabbih, targeting densely populated residential areas. The attack resulted in a civilian sustaining injuries of varying severity, a direct assault that reflects the deliberate targeting of civilians without any military justification.

The sources confirmed that the gunfire caused fear and anxiety among residents, particularly women and children, given the repeated nature of such incidents, which have become part of the harsh daily reality for people living in border areas.

This crime comes within the context of ongoing violations committed by the Saudi enemy against the people of Saada. The districts of Munabbih, Shada, Razih, and Qatabir are repeatedly subjected to gunfire as well as artillery and missile shelling, which in recent periods has led to civilian injuries and extensive damage to homes, farms, and public property.

Observers believe that this escalation underscores the failure of all claims of de-escalation and reveals the Saudi regime’s insistence on keeping border areas under constant military pressure, in an attempt to intimidate residents and impose an aggressive reality by force.

In the face of this escalation, the international community continues to maintain silence regarding the repeated crimes against civilians in Saada, a stance that has encouraged the Saudi enemy to persist in its attacks without deterrence or accountability—constituting a clear violation of international humanitarian law and the standards for civilian protection.

Residents of the border areas affirmed that these attacks pose a direct threat to their daily lives, calling on international and human rights organizations to assume their legal and humanitarian responsibilities, take serious action to condemn the repeated crimes against innocent civilians, and put an end to the policy of systematic targeting they endure.
