Y.A

A militant of UAE-backed southern transitional militias raped a female child in Aden province.

The child was raped by the militant who works in Aden’s security after anesthetizing her by giving her narcotic water.The child’s family demanded that the criminals be punished.

Amnesty International on Sunday called for those suspects in children rape crimes in Taiz province, including members of the warring forces loyal to Saudi-led coalition and local leaders, to be brought to justice for a fair trial.

The organization held the coalition-backed security authorities in Taiz responsible for protecting the families of children who were raped. It called for thorough investigations and zero tolerance for these crimes to protect the families of children from retaliation.

A 10-year-old foreign girl was raped on the last day of the holy month of Ramadan in the southern city of Aden, local sources reported.

According to local sources, the child is a Somali national who works in the Al-Rawishan tour of the Cairo area of Aden, and was lured by three men working in the same area on the last day of the holy month of Ramadan, after which she was gang-raped in a nearby building.

A child has been kidnapped and raped by coalition forces and their militiamen in the past few days, and a number of children have also disappeared since the forces of aggression managed to take control of Hazm district in Jawf province.

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.

More than 2,200 others have died of cholera, and the crisis has triggered what the United Nations has described as the world’s worst humanitarian disaster.
