Seven Citizens Tortured to Death by Saudi Army in Border Area of Sa’adah
The Republican Hospital in Sa’adah received the bodies of seven citizens who were tortured to death by the Saudi army in the Al-Raqo area of the border area.
“Security source in Sa’adah confirmed that the seven victims died after being tortured with electricity,” Almasirah correspondent reported confirming that the death toll is preliminary.
He condemned the heinous crime and the Saudi enemy’s persistence in shedding Yemeni blood by various means, whether by airstrikes, rocket and artillery shells, as well as torture to death.
Last month, three citizens were killed as a result of the bombing of the Saudi enemy on the border areas of Sa’adah Governorate.
Various areas of the border districts in Sa’adah are subjected to Saudi missile and artillery shelling, on a daily basis, resulting in heavy material losses.
Saudi Arabia, backed by the US and its other regional allies, launched a devastating war on Yemen in March 2015. The seven years and half of war has killed hundreds of thousands of people and destroyed much of the country’s infrastructure. Yemeni people are facing malnutrition, hunger, and famine, which have increased risks of disease and starvation.
In light of its defeats on various frontlines and its failure to achieve any of its objectives, the US-Saudi aggression is notorious for its indiscrimination shown by its numerous attacks against densely-populated centers, including markets, hospitals, farms and schools.
