Saudi Regime Targets African Migrants at Its Borders

Almasirah channel obtained scenes of the Saudi regime targeting and liquidating African migrants at its borders.

The scenes showed dozens of bodies killed by Saudi border guards. They also showed that the Saudi border guards handcuffed dozens of Ethiopian immigrants, believed to be moments before they were killed.

African survivors of the massacre confirmed that the Saudi soldiers deliberately electrocuted a room after collecting dozens of Ethiopian immigrants in it.

They pointed out that the Saudi border guards use to shoot directly and often use mortars to eliminate gatherings of migrants, stressing that about five migrants are killed every day at the border and many are injured.

In late July, the International Organization for Migration revealed the killings of migrants at the hands of the Saudi border guards, north of Sa’adah Governorate.

In a brief report, the organization said on Twitter that it had verified nine separate incidents that killed 189 and seriously injured 535 migrants at the Yemeni-Saudi border with the northern Yemeni governorate of Sa’adah.

The organization suggested that the number of victims as a result of Saudi forces targeting migrants with artillery, machine guns and live bullets is much more than that statistic.
