The UN report pointed towards the airstrikes having been committed by the Saudi Zio-Wahhabi led coalition, without directly accusing it.

A United Nations panel said Wednesday that at least 18,000 Yemeni civilians have been killed or wounded by airstrikes since the country's war escalated in 2015. In a report presented to the Human Rights Council, a group of experts named by the UN said that Yemen's people have been subjected to some 10 airstrikes a day, a total of more than 23,000 since March 2015. The report, which cited the Yemen Data Project for the airstrike figures, found both sides in the war to have violated international law. The project, a local data gathering operation, attributes all of the airstrikes to the Saudi Zio-Wahhabi led coalition. Meanwhile the coalition's rivals, the Houthi rebels, have shelled neighbourhoods, camps for the displaced, an airport and markets, leading to the deaths of do...

Yemen, a Quagmire for Saudi Coalition and Imperialists

By Azza Rojbi “I was still awake. I was sitting in a chair because I was afraid of the planes flying overhead and making a very loud noise. Then they dropped a bomb near us and afterwards they hit our neighbourhood with three bombs. After that, I lost consciousness.” These are the words of Yemeni child Ahmad Mansour, ten years old, after he survived the Saudi-led airstrike in his neighbourhood in the Midi District, Hajjah Governorate in north-western Yemen. Ahmed was injured, and his mother and siblings died in the airstrike. A total of 15 people were killed that day (nine children and four women). The airstrike against Ahmed’s neighbourhood is one of the horrific incidents documented by the Yemeni organization Mwatana for Human Rights in a report titled “DAY OF JUD...

US-Saudi- ‘Israeli’ “Axis of Evil” Against Yemen, Carefully Planned Military Undertaking

By Stephen Lendman Yemen is Obama’s war – planned months before Saudi-led proxies launched naked aggression. It’s been raging since March 26 with no end in sight. At stake is Yemeni sovereignty and the fate of its 24 million people suffering horrifically from relentless Saudi terror-bombing and shelling. Israel is very much involved. In late April, Fars News reported its submarines and warplanes “readily observed” near Saudi Arabia’s coastline since conflict began – according to unnamed foreign diplomats. They said Riyadh secretly agreed decades ago to give Israeli submarines and warplanes access to Saudi waters. They’ve been patrolling them since the start of conflict. According to Fars News, “(m)any regional officials…earlier revealed collaboration among the...

US-Saudi Man-Made Famine Threatens 20 Million Yemenis

By Chris Toensing 80 percent of people in the Arab world’s poorest country are in danger of starving to death under a US-backed and US-enabled blockade and bombing campaign Have the CNN, BBC, NBC, Fox, Sky, etc told you about that? Obviously a news that doesn’t directly touch on Russia. However, obviously an enormously important one – this is the biggest humanitarian disaster in the world right now – but it’s getting barely any attention because the US is contributing to it in a mayor way. (The Saudi campaign in Yemen wouldn’t be possible without American diplomatic, intelligence and logistics backing.)  Another interesting (albeit in the light of 20 million lives in danger far less key) angle is that despite repeatedly causing such tragedies (260,000 p...

Hundreds of Saudi and Gulf Military Personnel Trained in Britain as Yemen War Continues

By Phil Miller New data shows Britain’s Royal Air Force trained Saudi personnel in 2019 on fighter jets used to bomb civilians in Yemen – a country on the brink of famine – while UK soldiers coached other forces in the Saudi-led coalition at nearly a dozen army bases in Britain. *** Hundreds of Saudi military personnel received training at Royal Air Force (RAF) bases in the UK in 2019 – the same year a court banned new exports of British-made weapons to Saudi Arabia over human rights concerns in the Yemen war. Data obtained by Declassified UK from the Ministry of Defence (MOD) shows that 310 Saudis trained at six RAF sites in England and Wales last year. Some training for Saudi pilots is still under way, with courses lasting up to four years. The data shows th...

The Yemen Hidden Agenda: Behind the Al-Qaeda Scenarios, A Strategic Oil Transit Chokepoint

By F. William Engdahl On December 25 US authorities arrested a Nigerian named Abdulmutallab aboard a Northwest Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Detroit on charges of having tried to blow up the plane with smuggled explosives. Since then reports have been broadcast from CNN, the New York Times and other sources that he was “suspected” of having been trained in Yemen for his terror mission. What the world has been subjected to since is the emergence of a new target for the US ‘War on Terror,’ namely a desolate state on the Arabian Peninsula, Yemen. A closer look at the background suggests the Pentagon and US intelligence have a hidden agenda in Yemen. For some months the world has seen a steady escalation of US military involvement in Yemen, a dismally poor land adjacent to Saudi...

Breaking the Silence on the Destruction of Yemen

By James Corbett No matter how you boil it down, the script is as sad as it is predictable. Once again international powers are using a conflict in a strategically located country to advance their own agendas and enrich their military contractors at the expense of the ordinary Yemeni. It seems one of the riskiest things you can do in Yemen these days is get married. This past Wednesday two Saudi airstrikes on a wedding in Dhamar province, 50 miles south of the capital, Sanaa, killed between 23 and 30 people (depending on the report).https://www.youtube.com/embed/7OTIL2Kz630 This just one week after Saudi airstrikes targeted a wedding party in Taiz province, killing 131. That strike was the deadliest single incident since the start of Saudi airstrikes against Yemen’s Houthi-le...

UAE Withdrawal from Yemen. Turning Point. Did the Ansar Allah Just Win the Yemeni War?

By Andrew Korybko The announcement that the UAE is in the process of a large-scale military drawdown in Yemen has been met with rapturous applause by the Ansar Allah’s supporters who believe that this unofficially acknowledges their victory in the conflict, but these celebrations are premature because the vast majority of the country’s territory still remains outside of the armed group’s grasp even if most of its people reside in their region, and the most politically realistic solution to the war entails the institutionalization of the state’s deep divisions via the implementation of a “federal” model that de-facto restores the Old Cold War-era independence of North and South Yemen.  A Turning Point  Decision makers the world over are talking about the implications...

Obama’s “Successful” Airstrike Strategy in Yemen and Somalia Resulted in Major Increase in Terrorist Attacks

By: Interventions Watch Photo: A Yemeni boy looking at a graffitti in Sana’a, Yemen, showing a U.S. drone with a question in red: “Why did you kill my family?”. (Yahya Arhab/EPA) On Wednesday 10th September, Barack Obama made a major foreign policy speech, in which he set out how the U.S. and anyone who cares to tag along plan to ‘degrade, and ultimately destroy, ISIL through a comprehensive and sustained counter-terrorism strategy’. As was widely expected, Obama announced that as part of this ‘strategy’, the U.S. will not ‘hesitate to take action against ISIL in Syria, as well as Iraq’. And by ‘action’ he means, of course, bombing. He compared the newly announced ‘strategy’ for destroying ISIS in Iraq and Syria to the strategy that has been pursued by the U.S. in rec...
