Description


According to Mwatana for Human Rights: "On Wednesday, 10 January 2018, at about 3:30 am, Coalition aircraft bombed the home of Ali Ma’idh Al Ghamri in Al Shawmiah village in the Ghamr district of Sa’dah governorate. The attack killed three children and injured their mother. Khalil Jubran (49 years old), a witness, said: “This is the fourth time that fighter jets targeted civilian homes [in the area], and I am sure that it will not be the last. These three children, Yahya (18 years old), Raja’a (10 years old), and Hana’a (8 years old) are the children of Ali Ma’idh and they were killed while sleeping. This was a horrible day for all of the people of Ghamr.”" [+]
