Human Rights Watch says Saudi strikes killed more than 60 civilians in fall

Saudi Arabian air strike shave killed 60 civilians in residential areas of Yemen’s capital

 

According to a report of the Human Rights Watch, Saudi Arabian air strike shave killed 60 civilians in residential areas of Yemen’s capital of Sanaa during September and October.

The report added that the coalition had repeatedly used bombs in areas inhabited by non-combatants, which increased the likelihood of casualties among civilian population.

Saudi Arabia has been striking Yemen for 271 days now to restore power to fugitive president Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh. The Saudi aggression has so far killed at least 7,182 Yemenis, including hundreds of women and children.

Despite Riyadh’s claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi warplanes are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures.
