Yemeni army forces have fired a domestically-designed and -developed ballistic missile at recently constructed Saudi military camp in Saudi Arabia’s southwestern border region of Jizan in response to the US backed Saudi-led coalition’s regime’s devastating military campaign against their country.

The missile force of the Yemeni army forces also targeted ,yesterday, Aramco and the Economic City with ballistic missiles, Badr 1, in Jizan.

On the other hand, The coalition targeted Al-Hodeidah radio station in the Al-Marawah district with several raids, which led to the death of 3 guards and one of its employees, in addition to material damage to the buildings and facilities of the radio.

Yesterday, at least 15 people have lost their lives in fresh air raids conducted by the coalition’s warplanes on a strategic road linking the Yemeni port city of Hodeidah to the capital, Sana’a, and more than 20 people were injured in the aerial assaults on the Kilo 16 highway.

Notably, many Yemeni families reportedly have nothing to eat but leaves as a humanitarian crisis caused by the coalition’s deadly bombing campaign on the impoverished state reaches a critical stage.

The Associated Press reported that people in the Aslam district of Yemen’s northwestern Hajjah Province rely on leaves from the local vine, known as Halas in Arabic or Arabian Wax Leaf in English, due to worsening hunger.

Mothers, the report said, pick the leaves, then wash and boil them into a sour, acidic green paste to stave off starvation.

According to local health figures, Aslam recorded one of Hajjah’s highest jumps in the number of malnourished children, from 384 cases being treated in January, an additional 1,319 more came in over the next six months.

Additionally, Aslam’s main health center has no pediatricians, electricity, oxygen cylinders and fuel for generators, the report said.

At least 20 children are known to have died of starvation this year in Hajjah.

Walid al-Shamshan, head of the Health Ministry’s nutrition section in Hajjah, said the province had seen 17,000 cases of severe acute malnutrition in the first six months of 2018, higher than in any full year on record.

“Deaths happen in remote villages where people can’t reach the health units,” Shamshan said. “It’s a steady deterioration and it’s scary.”

On Sep.13, the Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs, Josep Borrell, said that his country will go ahead with the implementation of the deal to deliver 400 laser-guided bombs to Saudi Arabia.

International human rights organisations accused Western countries, including the United States, Britain, France and Spain, of supplying the coalition in Yemen with weapons which are being used to commit possible war crimes in Yemen.

In March 2015, the US backed –Saudi-led coalition started  a war against Yemen with the declared aim of crushing the Houthi Ansarullah movement, who had taken over from the staunch Riyadh ally and fugitive former president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, while also seeking to secure the Saudi border with its southern neighbor. Three years and over 600,000 dead and injured Yemeni people and  prevented the patients from travelling abroad for treatment and blocked the entry of medicine into the war-torn country, the war has yielded little to that effect.

Despite the coalition claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi bombers are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures.

A UN panel has compiled a detailed report of civilian casualties caused by the Saudi military and its allies during their war against Yemen, saying the Riyadh-led coalition has used precision-guided munitions in its raids on civilian targets.

Sayyad Abdulmalik AL-Houthi claimed on one of his speech that Saudi Arabia is just a tool used by USA and Israel to fight Yemen to conquer it and wrestle control over Red Sea and Bab-AL-Mandab which will enable them to rule the world.

According to several reports, the coalition air campaign against Yemen has driven the impoverished country towards humanitarian disaster, as the coalitiondeadly campaign prevented the patients from travelling abroad for treatment and blocked the entry of medicine into the war-torn country.
