Description


According to the Panel of Experts on Yemen: "137. The Panel documented that the coalition had conducted air strikes targeting civilians and civilian objects, in violation of international humanitarian law, including camps for internally displaced persons and refugees; civilian gatherings, including weddings; civilian vehicles, including buses; civilian residential areas; medical facilities; schools; mosques; markets, factories and food storage warehouses; and other essential civilian infrastructure, such as the airport in Sana ’a, the port in Hudaydah and domestic transit routes (see annexes 52, 54 and 61). 138. The Panel documented 119 coalition sorties relating to violations of international humanitarian law. Many attacks involved multiple air strikes on multiple civilian objects. Of the 119 sorties, the Panel identified 146 targeted objects(see annex 47). [...] On Monday, 28 September 2015, Coalition airstrikes fired two missiles at and hit a wedding party hall in Wahijah village, outside of al-Mokha, in Yemen, killing at least 135 people, including 12 children. Many more were wounded and seriously injured. The Panel was told that the exact death toll had been difficult to ascertain due in part to the fact that the bodies of the victims were “badly mangled”. The attack on the wedding came one day after residents in two villages - Bani Zela and Zaylaa - near Yemen's border with Saudi Arabia – were attacked by air strikes on Sunday, 27 September 2015, killing more than 50 people."
