Saudis attack civilians in Hajjah, Sa’ada; casualties reported
[Iran Press TV] Airstrikes by Saudi warplanes have killed one and injured a number of other civilians in neighboring Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic... as the kingdom continues to target residential areas across the impoverished nation. Reports by local media on Monday said some Saudi air raids targeted a camp belonging to the internally-displaced Yemenis in the northwestern Hajjah Province, leaving at least six children and one woman injured. The attack took place in the Lamrour district of al-Shahel, a city in Hajjah. Yemen’s al-Masirah TV said Saudis also carried out an attack earlier on Monday on civilian houses in the city of Sa’ada, north of the country, killing one civilian. Security sources said air strikes also targeted a telecommunications center in the city of Saqayn and a post office in the city Haydan, both in the Sa’ada Province, which is a stronghold of Ansarullah. Reports said a number of houses were also destroyed in the attacks. Yemen has been the target of incessant Saudi A report by the United Nations ...a formerly good idea gone bad... Children's Fund indicates that the war has killed at least 934 children and injured nearly 1,400 more so far. This means, on average, six children have been directly affected by the violence every day. Posted by: Fred 2016-04-05 |
