Brutal massacres against Yemenis in conjunction with total internet outage
Quoting from the News Agency, YPA, that the US-Saudi-UAE aggression coalition has stepped up its air strikes on civilian positions in Yemen, after the army forces bombed sensitive positions in the United Arab Emirates.
During the past days, the Saudi-led coalition has committed many massacres in Yemen, in which about 500 civilians have been reported killed or wounded, in conjunction with a near total internet outage due to airstrikes that hit the country’s international internet portal in the coastal city of Hodeida in western Yemen, official sources said.
About 91 civilians were killed and nearly 500 other inmates of the reserve prison in Saada were injured following airstrikes on a prison and detention center where some 2,000 prisoners were being held.
According to the official sources, fifteen telecommunications company workers were also killed and wounded in a bombing targeting the telecommunications building in Hodeidah city, which resulted in a near total internet service blackout in large areas of the country.
Saudi Arabia, backed by the United States and regional allies, launched the war on Yemen in March 2015, with the goal of bringing the government of former Yemeni president Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi back to power.
The war has left hundreds of thousands of Yemenis dead and displaced millions more. It has also destroyed Yemen’s infrastructure and spread famine and infectious diseases there.
