Death Toll of US- Saudi-led coalition Massacre in Al-Dhalea Rises to 16, Mostly Women and Children

The death toll of US-Saudi-led coalition airstrikes that targeting a citizen’s house in Al-Dalea governorate has rose to 16 martyrs, mostly women and children.

“The victims toll of the aggression airstrikes on the house of Abbas al-Halmi in Qatabah, Al-Dhalea governorate, is 16 martyrs, including 7 children, 4 women and 5 men, while one of the paramedics was wounded after targeting them with two airstrikes this morning,” Armed forces spokesman Brigadier Yahya Sare’e said in a brief statement.

On Monday, the US-Saudi-led coalition committed a horrific crime in Al-Sawad area, Amran governorate, where 7 citizens, including women and children of the same family, were killed. The aerial aggression continued further into its crime, where it chased the family, a nomadic family, inside a mosque after fleeing their tent due to aggression raids in the area.

Two citizens were also killed after the coalition targeted their car with a missile in Al-Adi area of Harf Sufyan district on Sunday evening.

The US-Saudi aggression commits these massacres ignoring the President Mahdi al-Mashat’s initiative to halt strikes on Saudi Arabia in return for an end to the US-Saudi attacks on Yemen.

Following the initiative, the aerial aggression has stepped up its raids on various Yemeni governorates launching more than 100 air strikes during the past three days. It also continued to violate the ceasefire, commiting crimes in Hodeidah governorate, which observers saw as a practical refusal.
