Description


According to Mwatana for Human Rights: "In 2020, Mwatana documented about 32 Saudi/UAE-led coalition air strikes impacting civilians and civilian objects in eight Yemeni governorates: Amanat al-Asemah, Sana’a, Hajjah, Sadah, al-Hudaydah, al-Bayda, Ma’rib, al-Jawf. At least 104 civilians were killed, including 41 children and 17 women, and at least 81 civilians were injured, including 41 children and 19 women, in these air strikes. These attacks damaged and destroyed protected civilian objects, and hit residential homes and neighborhoods, markets, civilian vehicles, farms schools, and service and commercial facilities. [...] On Wednesday, July 15, 2020, at approximately 07:00 am, the Saudi/UAE-led coalition dropped two bombs on the al- Masa’fa village in al-Hazm district, al-Jawf governorate. The first bomb fell on the eastern side of a residential house in which five families were meeting to hold a circumcision ceremony for one of the children. The second bomb fell approximately three minutes later on another residential house about 150 meters north of the previous house. As a result of the air strike, 12 civilians were killed, including seven children and two women, and five children and one woman were wounded. The attack also destroyed the two homes almost completely and damaged a civilian car that was in the yard of the first house. A Mwatana researcher visited the site of the attack and conducted at least seven interviews with survivors, eyewitnesses, and family members of the victims, in addition to taking photographs of the damage caused by the attack. Another Mwatana researcher visited the victims, who were transferred to a hospital in the city of Ma’rib. Field research and witness statements did not identify any military target in or near the two homes before or during the attack. The nearest military target identified was approximately five kilometers from the site." [+]
