Abdu and Marwan, their father was Mohammed Nasser Thuknah. These two boys were targeted along with their entire family in Bakil Almir, Hajjah in an area bordering Saudi Arabia.
12 members of their family were massacred in a cluster bomb strike. Their father, mother, siblings and all their close relatives. These two boys survived for a further two weeks until they also, succumbed to their terrible wounds.
Those cluster munitions were supplied by the US. Cluster munitions
can contain chemicals such as Napalm or White Phosphorous. The wounds
and burns on these children suggest that a chemical agent had been used.
The US is by default a war criminal, they supply these lethal and hideous WMD and they are present in the Riyadh command and control centre when targets are chosen. The UK is also an accessory to murder, standing in the same control tower and supplying identified cruise missiles that have been used on civilian structures with no regard for human life.
I will be talking to Richie Allen
tonight about this and other grave violations of human rights and war
crimes being committed in Yemen by the Saudi-led coalition supported by
US, UK, NATO, UN and reinforced by their AQAP/DAESH proxy forces and
British [among other nations] trained mercenaries.
Rest in peace all souls who have been destroyed by this alliance from Hell.
Last night I spoke to Richie Allen about the war crimes & grave human rights violations being committed daily by the Saudi coalition with support and supplies from US, UK and other NATO members.

Over 4,000 Saudi mercenaries, including 178 commanders, have been killed during the year-long Riyadh-led war against Yemen, a Yemeni intelligence source said on Thursday.
"At least, 4,000 Saudi mercenaries have been killed during the savage
aggression of the Saudi-led Arab coalition against Yemen in the past one
year," the source told FNA.
He said that tens of the Saudi mercenaries killed by the Yemeni army
and popular forces have been Sudanese, Djiboutian, and even Chechnian
nationals, adding that 178 commanders are seen among the Saudi death
toll in Yemen war, "a fact that has always been kept secret the Saudi
media".
His remarks came after the Yemeni army and popular forces destroyed the
Saudi military positions and bases in Ma'rib province with a ballistic
missile, killing tens of the kingdom's forces.
The Qaher-I ballistic missile hit Saudi Arabia's Tadavin military base
in Ma'rib province in Yemen on Wednesday, Arabic-language media outlets
reported.
Early reports indicate large casualties on the Saudi forces in the
missile attack. The Saudi army and its coalition members have lost, at
least, over a hundred troops each time they have come under a ballistic
missile attack by Yemen.
The Yemeni forces have fired tens of missiles on the military positions
and gathering centers of Saudi-led coalition so far, killing hundreds
of Saudi forces and injuring many more.
The Saudi-led forces' armored vehicles were destroyed during the Yemeni missile attack.
Scores of Saudi forces were killed and injured in the Yemeni missile strikes.
In late February, a Yemeni Tochka missile hit the Saudi-led coalition's
military base in Ma'rib province, killing tens of coalition servicemen,
including 8 senior Saudi and UAE officers.
A Commander of Yemen's Ansarullah Movement confirmed firing of the
ballistic missile at the Ma'as military base in Ma'rib in Central Yemen.
He noted that at least 48 Saudi forces were killed in Yemen's Tochka missile attack.
Also on February 3, the Yemeni forces rained down a barrage of missiles
at the Saudi forces' military tower in Al-Dokhan region in Jizan
province in Southern Saudi Arabia.
Al-Dokhan tower was reportedly destroyed in the Yemeni missile attacks
in Jizan as eyewitnesses said that they had seen smoke rising from it.
The Yemeni army and popular forces regained control of Al-Khurma region
in Asir province after they destroyed two arms depots and other
military hardware of the Yemeni forces in the region.
Meantime, the Yemeni army's artillery units pounded Malhama military
base in Jizan province. The Saudi troops started fleeing their base as
soon as they came under the missile attack, FNA reported.

Saudi-led Coalition Cluster Bombs
The Rain of Death for Yemeni Civilians
“An obligation never to use, produce, transfer or stockpile cluster munitions. It also includes several positive obligations to ensure no further use and to redress past harm caused by the weapons.”.A cluster munitions, is an explosive device containing multiple explosive sub munitions. Like landmines, these sub munitions can remain a fatal threat to anyone in the area long after a conflict ends.
Decades after the initial bombing, these sub-munitions still have potential to claim lives, often surpassing even landmines in their threat to civilians. Their continued use is met with almost universal abhorrence. The Convention on Cluster Munitions banning their use has 113 signatories.
Even countries that haven’t signed the treaty are still bound by customary international humanitarian law, specifically that:
“An indiscriminate weapon is a weapon that cannot be directed at a military objective or whose effects cannot be limited, and the use of such inherently’ indiscriminate weapon is prohibited. Rule 71Cluster bombs are indiscriminate weapons that are imprecise at the time of use and leave behind submunitions that remain a threat for anyone in the area long after use. When the CBU-52B/Bs are used, it disintegrates in mid-air, depositing up to 220 bomblets at a time on an area roughly the size of a football field.
These weapons should never be used under any circumstances. Saudi Arabia and other coalition members – and the supplier, the US – are flouting the global standard that rejects cluster munitions because of their “long-term threat to civilians,” according to Human Rights Watch arms director Steve Goose.
“The use of cluster munitions in populated areas may amount to a war crime due to their indiscriminate nature,” the UN spokesperson pointed out.
“The coalition’s repeated use of cluster bombs in the middle of a crowded city suggests an intent to harm civilians, which is a war crime. These outrageous attacks show that the coalition seems less concerned than ever about sparing civilians from war’s horrors.”More than 7,500 people have been killed and over 14,000 others injured since the strikes began. The Saudi war has also taken a heavy toll on the impoverished country’s facilities and infrastructure.
Since the beginning of the war on Yemen, Sheba Rights Coalition (SRC) has collected credible evidence that Saudi-led coalition used cluster bombs in air strikes on Yemen’s on 56 occasions.
Below are the attacks documented by Sheba Rights coalition:
- Sanaa (1 strike),
- Saada (34 strikes),
- Aden (1 strike),
- Hajjah (11 strikes),
- Taiz (6 strikes),
- Lahj (1 strike),
- Ibb (1 strike), and
- Marib (3 strikes).
1)SANAA
In the early morning hours of January 6, 2016 the Saudi-led coalition air-dropped cluster bombs in densely populated residential neighborhoods of Yemen’s capital, Sanaa.
The areas that were targeted were: Madbah, Sawad Hanash, Al-Sunaina, Hayel Street, Al-Rabat Street, Al-Ziraa zone, Kuwait Street, Tunis Street, the university zone, and Bir Al-Shaif neighborhood. All the above mentioned areas are densely populated by civilians due to their close proximity to civil facilities such as schools, hospitals and universities.
Deaths and Injuries: A child was killed, and ten civilians injured in the attack.
Damage to Property and Infrastructure: 33 homes were damaged, 5 cars were burnt with 6 other cars damaged. A girls school was also damaged in the attack.
Eyewitness Accounts:
Eyewitnesses reported hearing dozens of small explosions that were the result of the bomblets dispersed over their neighborhood by coalition jets. In the morning, eye-witnesses confirmed what appeared to be the aftermath of the detonation of the bomblets with several buildings and cars in the neighborhood having been newly pockmarked by the shrapnel from the bomblets. Some eye-witness testimonies documented finding fragments of the bomblets in their cars and on the street.
1- Shaker Ghaleb Ahmed Shaker: A 25-year old resident on Al-Adel Street was critically injured when a cluster bomb penetrated through his bedroom roof, where he, his wife and his daughter were asleep. The bomb exploded upon impact with the bedroom floor and shrapnel flew in all directions. He sustained several shrapnel injuries to his chest, stomach and right arm. He was rushed to the Republican hospital in critical condition after shrapnel from the bomb got lodged near his kidney, but was transferred to Al-Thawra hospital due to the lack of supplies at the Republican hospital, a result of the air, sea and land blockade imposed by the coalition on Yemen.
2- Mohammed Hamoud Shalaan al-Hashidy: The 30-year old guard of a girls school that was damaged in the strike reported that as he prepared to leave his house, located in the vicinity of the school, for the morning prayer, he heard jets overhead and soon after he saw the sky light up in a fiery red glow and what appeared to be small ball-sized bombs dispersing over a wide area of the neighborhood.
Three of these bomblets fell on the school grounds causing loud explosions and sending shrapnel flying across the ground causing damage to windows, walls and the school’s water tanks.
2) HAJJAH
In
the afternoon of Saturday, 6th June, 2015, Saudi-led coalition jets
targeted a camp for the internally displaced people in Dhughayj located
in Hairan district of Hajjah province, just across the border of Yemen
with Saudi Arabia. There were 210 internally displaced families that
had set up make-shift camps in the area after having left their homes in
Haradh. The examination of the remnants of the weapons used has
identified the weapons as US-made ground-launched M26 cluster munitions
rockets. Coalition members Bahrain, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates
all possess M26 rockets and their launchers. Unexploded M77 DPICM were
also found at the scene.
Deaths and Injuries: 5 civilians were killed and 37 others injured among them several women and children.
Eye-witness Accounts: Upon
arrival at the scene of the strikes, 8 cluster munitions that failed to
detonate were found, along with 3 rockets and tank shells that were
spread over an area of two kilometers pausing a threat to children and
livestock grazing in the area.
1- Adel Hassan Ahmed Abdo: 20
year old Adel, a resident of the area stated that he saw apache
helicopters striking the camp from a farm he was in located
approximately 1 kilometer from the IDP camp. When the strikes stopped,
he and others rushed to the camp where they found several people injured
and several unexploded shells and munitions on the ground and across
neighboring farms. On the day following of the attack, two children
came across an unexploded bomb while grazing their livestock. They
attempted to carry the unexploded bomb but it detonated injuring both
children.
3) SAADA
According to a report from the Legal Center for Rights and Development in Yemen,[9] on June 15, 2015 the coalition fired four cluster bombs on BaniRabia in Razih district of Saada. The bombs were strewn over a vast area that was used for agricultural purposes.
On
July 2, 2015 more than ten civilians were injured when cluster bombs
exploded on their homes in al-Nadheer in Razih district. Five homes were
damaged by the strike.
On July 22, 2015 the coalition dropped cluster bombs that looked like children’s toys in al-Nadheerdistrict, in Saada
Recommendation
Khiam rehabilitation centerand SALAM for Democracy and Human rights and Sheba Rights coalition call for the
UN Human Rights Council to take stronger action in response to
widespread and grave violations of human rights and humanitarian law in
Yemen. We urge your delegation to ensure that the UN Human Rights
Council adopts at its 31st session a resolution under agenda item 4 to:
– Request
the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights to urgently
dispatch investigation teams, with expertise in weapon of mass
destruction, to investigate crimes under international law and other
widespread and serious violations and abuses of human rights in Yemen,
and provide recommendations for accountability.
– Refer
the situation in Yemen to the Prosecutor of the International Criminal
Court (ICC). Such a step would make clear to all sides that those who
instigate, collude with or carry out war crimes & by default, crimes against Humanity, will be held accountable for their actions
– Call
the 116 nations that are part of the Convention on Cluster Munitions to
take immediate action in accordance with the Article 21 (2) of the
Convention, to prevent any use of cluster munitions in Yemen or in any
other nation.
– Ensure the effective protection& sanctity of civilian lives. Acknowledge the multiple, extensive forms of abuse, victimization & repeat victimization. Address the need for accountability. Ensure intensive and conclusiveinvestigations into the continued use of banned weapons on Yemen by the Saudi-led coalition.
– Allow access for an independent humanitarian assessment of besieged areas and communities;
– Protect humanitarian workers, including medical personnel. Facilitate
the rapid and unimpeded passage of relief supplies, and safeguard the
sanctity of hospitals and all medical transport vehicles.
