According to Mwatana for Human Rights: "Despite the statements issued by the Spokesman of the Arab Allied Forces –Brigadier General Ahmed Aseeri- that all precautionary measures were taken to avoid civilian casualties and to ensure the safety and security of all Yemenis, a sizable number of the coalition’ aerial attacks did target civilian areas and resulted in killing and injury of civilian, damage of homes, civil institutions and infrastructures. These violations may tantamount to war crimes in accordance with the International Humanitarian Law. [...] A plane belonging to the Saudi-led Arab coalition dropped a bomb on a house in Al Qasimi neighborhood in old Sana’a District in the center of the capital Sana’a on June 13, 2015. Although the bomb did not explode, but its huge weight and the strength and impact of the hit did not give the residents the chance to say that they were fortunate it did not explode, as it caused havoc in four houses, killing five civilians including a women and a child, as well as causing damage to the historic city. Mohamed Al-Mansour (56 years old) bore the brunt of the attack losing five members of his family: two of his brothers, his nephew, his sister-in-law and a cousin. Al-Mansour described to Mwatana the shock of a man awakened by a telephone call after two a.m. telling him that his relatives are crying out for help from under the rubble. Al-Mansour ran to his brother’s house and found it destroyed and under the ruins were five members of his family “we dug out my cousin from under the rubble about 5:00 a.m., and then we dug out my brother’s wife about 10:00 a.m., and then dug out one of my brothers an hour later. We dug out my other brother after noon prayer, approximately 12:30 p.m. My young nephew remained under the rubble until we found him and dug him out around sunset.” He continued “There are no Houthis nor armed men in our neighborhood. And my family doesn’t belong to any political party or any armed movements. Everyone knows that we are peaceful and everyone knows the value of old Sana’a with its ancient history especially Al Qasimi neighborhood, which is the oldest neighborhood in Old Sana’a. This neighborhood in particular was Mecca of tourists before any other area in old Sana’a. Saudi Arabia does not want to leave us any history, or else why would their planes bomb ancient and historical sites such as Old Sana’a, Zabid, Marib, and Cairo Castle in Ta’iz. They shouldn’t think that by destroying these places they will destroy our ancient history.” Mohammed pointed out that the nearest military site to the house is the Ministry of Defense compound, which is about 300-400 meters away from the house and he told Mwatana when we interviewed him on 20 June 2015 that parts of the bomb was located in the Corps of Engineers." ^[+]
