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 Hajjah Governorate, the Saudi-led coalition launched on Monday 8 raids on the districts of Haradh and Medhi during the past hours.
In Al-Bayda Governorate, the coalition warplanes conducted three raids on the area of Natta.
In Sa’ada Governorate, northern Yemeni border, the property of the citizens was damaged and a number of livestock were killed by the Saudi shelling of the district of Monabeh.
In the capital Sana’a, the warplanes intensified their hovering over the capital.
In al-Jawf Governorate, the US-backed Saudi/UAE fighter jets provided coverage for their paid-militias by conducting at least 11 airstrikes using an Apache during a foiled attempt to advance on the Al-Ajashar desert.
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, who 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.
