Civilians killed in Arab airstrikes on Yemen

At least six children under the age of 10 were among a reported 25 people killed in Saudi Arabian-led airstrikes in the Yemeni capital Sana’a early this morning, Amnesty International confirmed after speaking to hospital officials and eyewitnesses.

The organization spoke to medical personnel at four different hospitals where the dead were taken after being pulled from the rubble of 14 houses that were hit in a residential neighbourhood near the city’s international airport. The rest of those killed were men, mostly in their 30s and 40s. It is believed that more people may still be buried beneath the rubble, and at least 20, including four women, were admitted to hospital with mainly shrapnel injures.

This high toll of civilian deaths and injuries in these attacks raises concerns about compliance with the rules of international humanitarian law. Saudi Arabian and any other armed forces carrying out airstrikes in Yemen are required to take all feasible precautions to spare civilians.​

“This high toll of civilian deaths and injuries in these attacks raises concerns about compliance with the rules of international humanitarian law. Saudi Arabian and any other armed forces carrying out airstrikes in Yemen are required to take all feasible precautions to spare civilians,” said Said Boumedouha, Deputy Director of Amnesty International’s Middle East and North Africa Programme.

“This includes verifying that targets are in fact military objectives and giving civilians effective advance warnings unless circumstances do not permit.

“The Huthi armed groups and the Yemeni armed forces also have obligations under international humanitarian law to protect civilians under their control from the effects of attacks, including by avoiding, to the extent feasible, locating their fighters and weaponry within residential neighbourhoods.”

Given the civilian deaths and injuries, Saudi Arabia and other states involved in these airstrikes must investigate whether violations of international humanitarian law were committed. And if there is evidence that war crimes were committed they must prosecute the suspects in fair trials.

Yemen’s Ministry of Health today said the airstrikes killed 25 people and injured some 40 – it is not yet known if there were any fighters among the casualties.

According to a paramedic who witnessed the aftermath, the airstrike near the airport occurred shortly before 3AM local time, in a residential area called Beni Hawat. Huthi armed groups had allegedly been operating a checkpoint around 100m away, as well as al-Dailami base around 500m away.

Saudi Arabian officials today stated they had destroyed “all Huthi air defences" at al-Dailami base next to Sana’a International Airport.

Beni Hawat was among a number of sites around the city hit by airstrikes overnight as Saudi Arabia announced it was launching a military intervention by a coalition of 10 countries, including five Gulf Cooperation Council states, against the Huthi armed groups. The US government today stated it had “authorized the provision of logistical and intelligence support” to this military intervention, and other governments, including the UK and Turkey, endorsed the move.

Iran, Russia demand immediate halt to Saudi-led intervention in Yemen


Iran and Russia have called on Saudi Arabia to halt airstrikes on Yemen as supporters of Yemen’s ruling Houthi militants stage demonstrations throughout the country, protesting against the Saudi-led military intervention.

Speaking to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, Russia’s Vladimir Putin called for an "immediate cessation of military activities" in Yemen and for the boosting of efforts to find a peaceful solution to the crisis, the Kremlin said in a statement on Thursday.

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said that military operations against Yemen will only lead to further destabilization of the region, which has fallen under Houthi control after an onslaught of increased violence in recent months.

“We demand an immediate stop to the Saudi military operations in Yemen,” he said in an interview with Iran's Arabic-language al-Alam news network on Thursday. “We will spare no effort to contain the crisis in Yemen.”

Iran is suspected of providing supplies and training to the Houthi rebels, but Tehran has publicly denied these claims.

A United Arab Emirates official, however, expressed concerns about Iran's influence in Yemen.

"The strategic change in the region benefits Iran and we cannot be silent about the fact that the Houthis carry their banner," UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Anwar Mohammed Gargash tweeted on Thursday.

In addition, Lebanon’s Hezbollah has decried the move as “unjust aggression.” The Shiite group urged Saudi Arabia and its allies to cease the strikes immediately.

"This adventure, [which] lacks wisdom and legal and legitimate justification and which is led by Saudi Arabia, is taking the region towards increased tension and dangers for the future and the present of the region," the group said in a statement on Thursday.

Saudi-led strikes, launched early Thursday morning, targeted the country’s capital Sanaa as well as a southern base. Following the strikes, a Houthi revolutionary committee called for mass rallies to stir up public support for a military response to the Saudi intervention.

“We will react against Saudi oppression in all ways we are capable...Yemeni blood is not cheap. Saudi has announced war in Yemen,” said Ali Al Kohom, a member of the Houthi Political Council.

Houthi leadership has also maintained that the country is ready to ward of Saudi aggression without help from Tehran.

“Yemeni people are prepared to face this aggression without any foreign interference," Houthi politburo official Mohammed al-Bukhaiti told Reuters.

Meanwhile, EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini has said that a military response will not solve the crisis in Yemen, and urged all parties to act “responsibly.”

“I’m convinced that military action is not a solution,” she said. “At this critical juncture, all regional actors should act responsibly and constructively to create as a matter of urgency the conditions for a return to negotiations.”

Though Washington is not involved directly in the operation, the White House has authorized “logistical and intelligence support.”

Yemen’s ousted President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi left the country's southern city of Aden on Thursday, where he had been holing up since fleeing Houthi custody in February. Saudi state TV said he has arrived in the Saudi capital Riyadh and will later head to Egypt under Saudi protection, where he is expected to attend an Arab summit on Saturday.

An escalating conflict in Yemen could bode badly for global oil supplies, as oil prices spiked more than four percent on Thursday.

According to senior Houthi official Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, Houthis were going to fight back against Saudi Arabia and its Persian Gulf Arab allies with all possible means.


SANAA (Sputnik) – Houthi rebels who have become the target of an international military operation launched by Saudi Arabia against the militants in Yemen are determined to strike back with all means available, Mohammed al-Bukhaiti, a member of the Houthi governance board, has told Sputnik.

"This is a declaration of war against the Yemeni people, we will fight those who fight against us."

The official added that Saudi Arabia and its Persian Gulf Arab allies will regret having launched a military operation against the Houthis.

"They attacked, they started this, so they will answer to Allah and the people for the consequences. This attack is a surprise to us and we will respond to it with all means that are available to us."

Earlier, al-Bukhaiti reportedly warned of a "wide war" that could start in Yemen following Saudi Arabia and its Persian Gulf Arab allies' "aggression."

There is some chatter on the net about Russian and Chinese naval groupings moving towards Bab El-Mandeb. Severomorsk (of proekt 1155) has been mentioned in conjunction with that.

Anybody has any news about that?

Where was Severomorsk last?

By the way, regarding Yemen, here's some additional chatter.

- Early on Saudis lost 2-4 aircraft.

- Yesterday UAE lost one aircraft.

- "Houthi" forces have already moved into Saudi Arabia.

The Nazi losses should, of course, be a lot more than these numbers suggest. There are many reasons for this; one circumstantial evidence is the swift and relatively massive additional gains that the "Houthis" have made over the last 24 hours, and this is confirmed by "everyone".

"Nazi" lost its shock value.

I prefer "Saudi Regime", and always refer to the king as a dictator. I always liked the western media terminology.

Well, there is no Saudi regime. Saudi Arabia is a vassal of the "US", just like Nazi Germany that was a vassal of the "US", hence the reason for me calling all of them Nazis.

As far as Saudi (and co) losses go, we know for sure of 1 x F-15 (officially malfunction) and apparently 1 x Sudanese fighter (not sure what type) as claimed by the houthis...apparently the pilot has been captured.

...

One comentator described the Saudis as a primitive desert tribe that won the lottery. They now believe they are Allah's instrument on earth and chosen ones.

Maybe it's too early to make predictions but I think this will backfire on them

Pictures of shot down Sudanese jet. It seems Jemen shot down 1 Saudi F-15 and 1 Sudanese jet (which type?). I wonder now, did they shot them down by SAMs or by MiGs? Saudi F-15 fall in the sea, so most probably MiG as I don't know, if Jemen (Houtis) have SAMs with enough long range. If shot down by MiGs, than who fly in them? Maybe Iran send some MiG-29 pilots in Jemen to fly in their MiG-29SMT. This could make headache for Saudis, Iranian pilots are well trained.

Here is a video of Sudanese jet.

I saw a video allegedly of the destroyed "Sudanese" jet. The video was of better quality. What I saw there most probably seemed to be a Yemeni Su-22.

Unless we'll have better info/images, i'm afraid i agree with the assessments that the images above depict likely S-75 or maybe S-125 SAM debris (you can see the nozzle), not an aircraft.

Half of Yemen is under AL-QAEDA control. And no one bothered to bomb them?





You know why?
Beacuse They created the Al-Qaeda
