Sana'a: On this day, April 24, history marks a series of aggressive actions by the US-Saudi-Emirati coalition that significantly impacted various regions through airstrikes and artillery shelling, resulting in the loss of lives and widespread destruction of infrastructure and private property.
According to Yemen News Agency, on April 24, 2015, airstrikes by the coalition led to the death of six citizens and injuries to three others in the village of Al-Rukb, near Taiz. The aggression also targeted the 35th Armored Brigade and the historic Dar Al-Hassan in Dhale' Governorate, injuring five citizens, including three children, and causing significant damage to nearby structures.
The ancient Aw'al Sirwah Temple in Ma'rib Governorate suffered substantial damage due to airstrikes, while in 2016, two children were injured by a cluster bomb explosion in Sa'ada Governorate. The coalition's air force intensified attacks on infrastructure, including buildings in Hadramaut and Mukalla, causing severe damage.
In Taiz Governorate, airstrikes in 2017 killed civilians and damaged vehicles and infrastructure, while similar attacks occurred in Ma'rib, Dhamar, and Sa'dah governorates, causing widespread destruction to farms and civilian properties.
By 2018, an airstrike on a fuel station in Hajjah Governorate resulted in 18 civilian deaths. The aggression continued to target various districts, including Arhab in Sana'a Governorate and border areas, inflicting significant civilian casualties and property damage.
The following years saw continued aggression, with heavy artillery and airstrikes targeting multiple regions, including Hodeida, Marib, and Sa'dah governorates. The aggression led to civilian casualties and extensive damage to infrastructure, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis in the affected areas.
In 2020 and 2021, the aggression's air force and mercenaries continued targeting various districts with artillery, missiles, and airstrikes, further escalating tensions and impacting civilians' lives. In 2022, aggression-related activities led to the death of a girl due to an unexploded bomb, and the establishment of combat fortifications heightened hostilities in several districts.
Throughout these years, the US-Saudi-Emirati coalition's actions have left a trail of destruction and suffering, significantly impacting civilian lives and infrastructure across the affected regions.
