Amnesty International: The Saudi coalition’s crime in Saada, Yemen, was committed using American weapons.

Amnesty International on Thursday released a report on the recent atrocities committed by the Saudi-Emirati-American aggression coalition in Saada, Yemen.

According to Amnesty International, these bullets are guided by laser beams and are made by the American company “Raytheon”. The bullets are the latest evidence that the Saudi coalition used American weapons in the crime; An act that reaches the level of war crimes.
The Saudi coalition carried out large-scale airstrikes in northern Yemen, including Sanaa, over the past week, killing “dozens of civilians and destroying infrastructure and service centers,” the report said.
“Despite a four-day internet shutdown, the gruesome images released from Yemen were a clear warning to those who are paying a heavy price for arms sales to Saudi Arabia and its allies,” said Lynn Maulouf, deputy director of Amnesty International’s Middle East and North Africa Regional Office. “It benefits Western countries.”
“The United States and other arms suppliers must immediately stop the process of transferring weapons, equipment and military aid to all parties involved in Yemen,” Maalouf stressed. “It is also the responsibility of the international community to close its doors to arms sales operations that, without any justification, intensify the suffering of civilians.”
He also noted that the United States, along with Britain and France, was responsible for the aggression, given that the United States had previously provided weapons to the Saudi coalition and observed violations of international human rights and humanitarian law.
