According to Eye of Humanity Center (Ain al-Insiyah Center) for Human Rights and Development, 46,374 civilians, including nearly 14,000 women and children were killed and injured as a result of the direct bombing of homes, schools and markets.
In its statistics of the crimes of the US-Saudi aggression during 2600 days, the Center explained that the total number of killed and injured amounted to 17,774 killed and 28,599 injured.
It indicated that 4,028 children were killed and 4,595 injured, while 2,440women were killed and 2,913 injured.
During the 2600 days of the aggression, 11,307 men were killed and 21,091 injured, the Center added, noting that the statistic is not final as there are areas that it was unable to reach.
Humanity Eye Center confirmed that the US-Saudi aggression targeted 590,770 homes, 1,622 mosques, 413 hospitals and health facilities, 1,216 schools and educational facilities, and 182 university facilities.
The Center also clarified that the US-Saudi aggression targeted 1002 food stores, 2,815 tanks, a water station, 416 fuel stations, 971 food trucks, 1,002 agricultural fields, 434 poultry and livestock farms, and 482 fishing boats.
It also indicated that within the 2600 days of the US-Saudi aggression, 405 factories, 11,952 commercial facilities, 378 fuel tankers and 9,868 different means of transportation were targeted.
The Center concluded its statistics that the US-Saudi aggression targeted 15 airports, 16 ports, 6,827 roads and bridges, 342 stations and generators, 614 networks and communication stations, 2,095 government facilities, 254 archaeological sites, 139 sports facilities, 60 media facilities, and 376 tourist facilities.
Saudi Arabia, backed by the United States and regional allies, launched the war on Yemen in March 2015, with the goal of bringing the government of former Yemeni president Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi back to power.
The US-Saudi aggression continues to target neighborhoods and populated areas and destroy the infrastructure and capabilities of the country, in light of a suspicious international silence.
The war has left hundreds of thousands of Yemenis dead and displaced millions more. It has also destroyed Yemen’s infrastructure and spread famine and infectious diseases there.
