A statement condemning the Organization for Redressing the Crimes of Aggression against Civilians in Al-Hodeidah

Entsaf Organization for Women and Children’s Rights condemns the continued crimes of the countries of the US-Saudi aggression against the children of Yemen, where a child was seriously injured by shrapnel of artillery shells fired by the mercenaries of the aggression on their home in Hays district, Hodeidah governorate, on Monday, January 10, 2022 .

The targeting is a grave violation of international humanitarian law, which criminalizes the targeting of innocent civilians in any way.

It also confirms the intentional violation of the principles and rules of international humanitarian law by the Saudi coalition forces, including the principle of humanity, the principle of distinction and the principle of proportionality, which made these crimes amount to Crimes against humanity and an extension of the series of war crimes and genocide committed by the Saudi-led coalition for the seventh consecutive year in Yemen.

Entisaf Organization renews its appeal to the international community, human rights and humanitarian organizations, and all honorable and free people of the world to assume their moral and humanitarian responsibilities in supporting the oppressed Yemeni people, condemning the horrific crimes committed by the Saudi coalition and putting pressure on the United Nations, specifically the Security Council, to carry out their legal and moral duty to protect civilians and stop the war and all forms of aggression, and it also renews its call for the formation of a neutral international investigation committee to investigate all crimes and massacres committed by the coalition forces against defenseless civilians.
