Southern Yemen, every thing is a target even animals

Since March 2015, Saudi-led coalition airstrikes have killed a preposterous number of civilian bystanders, and repeatedly hit places like schools and hospitals across the country.

In many cases the more harmful strikes are against places like food processors and basic industries, whose destruction exacerbates chronic food shortages in the nation and ensures that any post-war reconstruction will be arduously slow.

Saudis are forever downplaying such incidents, but the reality of the Saudi war is becoming increasingly apparent. It is a war not only against the Houthi movement, but against Yemen’s population, economy and even animals.

One of the the last horibble crimes is when militias backed by Saudi-led coalition have killed two Arabian leopards in Yemen’s southern province of al-Dhalea, residents said.

Yemeni activists have circulated photos over the past two days via social media, showing the militias while holding the two leopards and opening fire at them.

The incident took place in Shoaib area, which is under the militias control. Residents said the incident is the latest in a series of attacks against the wild animals in the area, recalling that at least ten tigers were killed since the beginning of Ramadan.
