Description


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. [...] On 9 August 2015 between 3:30 p.m. – 4:00 p.m., a fighter jet belonging to the Saudi-led Arab coalition forces dropped a bomb at a center for the sale of auto parts at the entrance of Al-Qobaitah in Al-Rahidah area. It’s an area that is located within Dumnat Khadder District 40 kilometers south of the city of Ta’iz. The bombed caused the deaths of a child and wounded three civilians, including a child. Abdel-Fattah Saeed Abdo, a motorcycle driver who was injured in the attack said: “I was chewing Qat with my friends when the first strike occurred. It was very scary. I stood up from between the rubble and smoke and I was shouting in hysteria I am alive, I am dead.” He continued saying to Mwatana: “they hit poor laborers and civilians. My brother was injured in another air strike in May of this year, and I was injured in this air strike, we are not linked or affiliated with the Houthis or Resistance or any other party or group.""
