Statement by the #Entesaf Organization condemning the continued crimes of the Saudi-American aggression against the children of #Taiz

We condemn and denounce in the strongest terms the continued crimes of the Saudi-American aggression against the children of Yemen. Two children were injured as a result of artillery shelling by Saudi-American aggression mercenaries on civilian homes in the Al-Amal neighborhood in the Sala district of #Taiz Governorate on Monday, June 9, 2025.

This targeting constitutes a grave violation of international humanitarian law, which criminalizes the targeting of civilian facilities in any form. It also confirms the deliberate violation of the principles and rules of international humanitarian law by the Saudi-American aggression forces, including the principles of humanity, distinction, and proportionality. This has made these crimes amount to crimes against humanity and an extension of the series of war crimes and genocide committed by the aggression coalition against Yemen for more than ten years.

We hold the Saudi-American aggression coalition responsible for all crimes committed against civilians, and we demand an investigation and criminal accountability for all those proven to be involved in these crimes. We also hold the United Nations and the Security Council responsible for their shameful silence and shirking of their duties, which has encouraged the Saudi-American aggression coalition to continue committing more war crimes against civilians in Yemen.

We renew our 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-American aggression, and pressuring the United Nations, specifically the Security Council, to fulfill their legal and moral duty to protect civilians and stop the war and all forms of aggression. We also renew our call for the formation of an impartial international investigation committee to investigate all crimes and massacres committed by the Saudi-American aggression coalition forces against defenseless civilians.
