Widespread Destruction and Casualties Mark Years of Aggression in Yemen

Sana'a: The ongoing aggression by US-Saudi-Emirati forces and their mercenaries in Yemen has resulted in the martyrdom and injury of dozens of citizens, including children and women, while also causing widespread destruction to homes and infrastructure across several governorates.

According to Yemen News Agency, a significant number of airstrikes and shelling incidents have occurred on September 10 over multiple years, causing extensive damage and loss of life. On September 10, 2015, a series of airstrikes in the Sana'a and Hajjah governorates resulted in the death of a woman and multiple citizens, including a guard and his wife, as well as damaging essential infrastructure like the Haradh German Hospital and a hotel electricity generator.

The aggression continued with airstrikes targeting densely populated areas in Al-Bayda, Marib, and Saada governorates, as well as destroying the home of Sheikh Saleh bin Sawda Tuaiman. In 2016, more than a hundred citizens were affected by airstrikes in Sana'a and other regions, with significant civilian casualties and infrastructure damage reported.

Over the years, similar incidents have occurred, with airstrikes targeting homes, public markets, telecommunications towers, and various civilian properties. The aggression has left a long trail of destruction and suffering, impacting numerous governorates like Al-Hodeida, Marib, and Al-Dhalea. In 2023, the situation remains dire, with mercenaries establishing combat fortifications and continuing to shell various areas with artillery and gunfire.

The ongoing conflict has caused severe humanitarian consequences, with the relentless aggression taking a heavy toll on the civilian population and infrastructure in Yemen.
