Yemeni Center for Human Rights condemns aggression’s crimes against citizens in border areas

The Yemeni Center for Human Rights condemned the continued targeting citizens in the border areas by artillery shell and various firearms.

The center explained in a statement issued by it, a copy of which was received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), that the number of victims as a result of the aggression’s targeting of the border areas since the announcement of the truce in April 2022 amounted to more than 520, including women and children, the most recent of which was the crime committed by the aggression coalition yesterday, in which two people were killed and a woman was injured.

Yemeni Center for Human Rights condemned the Security Council press statement issued on September 29, 2023, in which it condemned what it called “the horrific and escalating drone attack on members of the armed forces of the Kingdom of Bahrain” on the southern border of Saudi Arabia.

The center pointed out that statement demonstrates the Security Council’s continued double standards in everything related to the Yemeni issue and its permanent support for executioner.

It explained that since the coalition began its aggression against Yemen on March 26, 2015, the crimes of murder, extermination, war crimes and crimes against humanity have not stopped against Yemeni citizens in various provinces, without there being any serious positions or condemnation from the Security Council towards these ongoing crimes.

While the Center expressed its astonishment at the Security Council’s strong tone towards this unconfirmed incident, it stressed that the Security Council is still continuing to legitimize the coalition’s aggression against Yemen, in which it is considered a partner, and this is what the Center proved through a study (The Security Council and the Aggression against Yemen – Raids and Decisions) which was issued in 2022 AD.

The Security Council called for taking decisive steps towards a sustainable ceasefire, which will only be achieved by stopping the aggression, lifting the siege, and holding accountable the perpetrators of crimes from the aggression coalition’s countries, which led to the fall of more than 44,600 victims, including dead and wounded, most of them women and children, as a result of direct targeting since March. 2015 AD, along with tens of thousands who died as a result of the siege and closure of Sana’a airport, and the prevention of the arrival of food, medicine, and oil derivatives in the largest humanitarian disaster witnessed in the modern era, recognized by the United Nations and its organizations.

Yemeni Center for Human Rights called on the Islamic and Arab peoples, provinces, organizations, and free people of the world to condemn these crimes, and to take action at various levels to stop the crimes of the aggression coalition and its militias against the Yemeni people.
