Saudis deliberately target schools and kill kids in Yemen

deliberate targeting of schools across Yemen by Saudi Arabia

 

Amnesty International decried the deliberate targeting of schools across Yemen by Saudi Arabia, which has been conducting indiscriminate bombings against the impoverished country since March.
  The UK-based rights group released a report titled, “Our kids are bombed,” wherein it expressed outrage at the Saudi airstrikes against schools in the provinces of Sana’a, Hajjah, and Hudaydah in western Yemen between August and October.
    In some of the attacks, which killed five civilians and injured at least 14 people, including four children, “the schools were struck more than once, suggesting the strikes were deliberately targeted,” the rights group said. 
More than 7,500 people have been killed and over 14,000 others injured since the Saudi strikes began. The Saudi war has also taken a heavy toll on the Arabian Peninsula country’s facilities and infrastructure.
