Adding to the massive controversy surrounding Saudi Arabia’s war with Yemen, Doctors Without Borders (MSF) has confirmed today that a series of Saudi airstrikes against the central Yemeni city of Taiz has killed at least 65 civilians, including 17 from a single family.
Witnesses say the airstrikes began about 9:30 last night and continued into the morning. 17 buildings in the Sala District were destroyed, and civilians spent most of the day digging through the rubble looking for survivors of what would be among the deadliest Saudi attacks since the March war began.
Pro-Saudi forces have been trying to conquer Taiz all week, and MSF reported that 923 people have been wounded in just the last three days from the violence in the area. Only 7 of Taiz’s 21 hospitals are open, and they are all totally overwhelmed by the crisis, not to mention out of a lot of medication after months of naval blockade.
Taiz is Yemen’s third largest city, after the capital of Sanaa and the southern port of Aden. Sanaa is under control of the Shi’ite Houthis, while pro-Saudi fighters control Aden, and Taiz lies between the two, making it an inevitable site of contention.
The part of problem with Europe having refugees traveling from Syria, Libya, Iraq and Afghanistan is Saudis wanting to expend their falsified religious on other nations in Middle East, the question is that Europe present governing system, is unable to feed its own people due to lack of many social needs, like housing, jobs, social,services and above all money, so why Europe doesn't demand for David Cameron the English government, the former French president zarcozi, the Italian mafioso, the former English Labour Party leader Tony Blair, Bill Clinton and all other war criminals to pay the costs for these people misery. The European governing system simply can freez these people banking activity, so as the Saudis banking with Europe and USA.
This is why the leaders of the U.S. and Europe no longer have any credibility when it comes to war crimes or accusing others thereof. Any human rights violation alleged by these characters should now fall on deaf ears. What the barbarians of Saudi Arabia are doing with the U.S. leadership not only condoning but actually participating deserves to be brought to justice for war crimes.
