Today, the Eye of Humanity Center for Rights and Development held a press conference in Sanaa, to review the statistics of the crimes of the American-Zionist-Saudi-Emirati aggression coalition against Yemen during eleven years of aggression and siege. In the conference attended by the advisor to the President of the Supreme Political Council, Ambassador Abdul-Ilah Hajar, the head of the National Commission for Human Rights, Ali Tayseer, the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Agriculture for the Fisheries Sector, Dr. Fawzi Al-Saghir, and the child Buthaina Ain Al-Insaniya, who lost her entire family as a result of the aggression’s air strikes on the Faj Attan area, the head of the Ain Al-Insaniya Center for Rights and Development, Ahmed Abu Hamra, pointed out that today marks the eleventh anniversary of Saudi Arabia’s announcement from Washington, D.C., of the launch of a broad military operation against Yemen and its people, which from its first moment represented a clear departure from… Rules of international law and the United Nations Charter. He stressed that since the first strike, their target was the Yemeni citizen, by targeting civilian homes in the Bani Hawat area and destroying them on top of its residents, resulting in dozens of martyrs and wounded, most of them children and women. It became clear that the nature of the operations is not limited to a military confrontation, but rather extends to the killing and displacement of the Yemeni citizen and the systematic destruction of infrastructure and civilian infrastructure. Abu Hamra pointed out that after the features of the complex crime became clear, targeting all necessities of life, and in parallel with the raids, the aggression coalition imposed a stifling land, sea and air blockade, which included closing ports, disrupting ports and preventing the entry of fuel and medicine. The blockade was not a military measure but rather a tool of collective punishment that directly targeted civilians and led to the spread of famine and epidemics. He explained that the aggression then entered a more clear phase in targeting Yemen’s future capacity by targeting “factories, communications networks, warehouses, fuel tanks, bridges, and main roads,” and they became direct targets to take Yemen back decades, as well as targeting health facilities, hospitals, medical centers, schools, and universities, which deprived entire generations of their right to education. Abu Hamra stated that the world witnessed the crimes of the aggression coalition and they were documented by local legal teams and international experts, but the position of the international community remained within the framework of the initial statements, without any real steps for accountability and from Yemen to Gaza the criminal model was repeated. He pointed out that the United States had the primary and pivotal role in the aggression against Yemen, and also played a pivotal role in the genocide to which the residents of the Gaza Strip were subjected, by supplying Israel with weapons, providing political and diplomatic cover, disrupting Security Council resolutions, disavowing the international community, and leaving the besieged people of Gaza alone in front of the Zionist and American killing machine, just as the Yemeni people were left before them in front of the criminality of the Saudi-American aggression coalition. The head of the Eye of Humanity Center reviewed statistics documenting the tragedy, losses, and direct damage caused by the aggression on the Yemeni people over the course of 11 years, indicating that the center is working on documenting the effects and indirect damages of the aggression on Yemen and will issue it during the next month. Abu Hamra touched on the brutal crimes committed by the Saudi-American aggression coalition in Yemen by directing air attacks to target residential neighborhoods, civilian objects, and areas populated by women and children since the first hours of the start of the raids on Yemen. The report issued by the Center pointed out that the United States of America, through its regional tools, “the UAE-Saudi Arabia,” did not hesitate to bomb popular markets, residential cities, women’s gatherings, schools, wedding ceremonies, funeral gatherings, martyrs’ graves, mosques, displaced persons’ camps, hospitals, ambulances, medicine depots, fishing boats, food stores, means of transportation, educational institutions, sports stadiums, parks, historical places, and service facilities. The Center documented the massacres committed by the aggression coalition on civilian gatherings such as wedding parties, funeral gatherings, and popular markets, which are sites that do not constitute military targets by nature. These incidents led to the killing and wounding of large numbers of civilians, including women and children, and also caused a state of fear and shock among the local population. The report explained that the number of civilian martyrs and wounded as a result of hundreds of massacres committed by the Saudi and Emirati aggression against the Yemeni people, during one of 11 attacks, amounted to about 60,000 martyrs and wounded. He pointed out that these huge and shocking numbers are victims of direct bombing, and what the Center was able to document, while the numbers are in reality much more than this statistic, as there are remote areas that the Center’s teams could not reach or even communicate with due to the aggression’s targeting of communications networks, and there are tens of thousands of other victims as a result of indirect effects, and they died as a result of malnutrition, lack of necessary medicines, as a result of the imposed siege, and the inability of those in need of treatment and travel abroad due to the closure of airports. The report confirmed that the death toll is still rising due to the almost daily artillery and missile shelling on civilian villages, homes and farms in the districts bordering Saudi Arabia, as well as due to the remnants of war and the remnants of cluster bombs dropped by the aggression coalition countries in several governorates, which are claiming the lives of civilians, especially children. The head of the Humanity Eye Center, Abu Hamra, confirmed that the report issued by the center documented statistics on the number of facilities of a civilian nature destroyed and damaged during 11 years as a result of the Saudi and Emirati aggression against Yemen. He explained that the aggression caused the destruction of more than 15,000 food facilities, including factories, stores, markets, and food stores. It also destroyed more than 19,400 agricultural and animal facilities, more than 5,600 electrical networks and stations, and 4,700 fishing boats and fish landing centers. According to the report, over the course of 11 years, the Saudi and Emirati aggression paralyzed basic services, including transportation, energy, communications, and water. The air strikes targeted the basic infrastructure that residents depend on in their daily lives, including the destruction of nine airports, 14 ports, about 2,200 sites and communications facilities, more than 930 fuel stations and tankers, eight thousand and five hundred cars and means of transportation, and eight thousand roads and bridges. It also destroyed more than 12,400. A water facility, and 2,200 government and service facilities. He pointed out that the aggression destroyed 2,900 educational facilities, 670 health facilities, 360 tourist facilities, more than 420 archaeological sites, 86 media institutions and radio transmission centers, and targeted more than 1,840 mosques and 136 sports facilities. The report called on the relevant authorities to open independent and transparent international investigations into all violations and crimes committed against civilians in a way that ensures that the full truth is revealed without derogation, and that all those responsible for these crimes are held accountable, especially the parties and countries involved in the aggression, namely Saudi Arabia, the Emirates, America, and the Zionist entity, and to ensure that they do not escape punishment. He stressed the need to legally classify these acts as war crimes and consider the possibility of including them among crimes against humanity in view of their broad and systematic nature, and to provide justice to the victims and redress the damage by providing fair compensation, ensuring reconstruction and rehabilitating those affected, and taking urgent international measures to stop the ongoing violations, lift the siege, open airports, protect civilians, and ensure that such crimes are not repeated. The report considered this statistic to be a humanitarian and legal testimony to 11 years of suffering, and a document of moral and legal condemnation that does not have a statute of limitations, stressing that the blood of the victims, the groans of the wounded, and the tears of mothers are not just numbers in records, but rather an open call for justice and a collective responsibility that falls on the shoulders of the entire international community. In turn, the head of the National Commission for Human Rights confirmed in his intervention that the report issued by the Eye of Humanity Center only documents the direct damage and effects of bombing and air strikes at various levels, while the indirect effects and damage go far beyond that. He stressed that the victims and indirect damages of the aggression and blockade on Yemen and their resulting effects amounted to more than 1,500,000 people who died due to their inability to obtain medicine at the right moment, the death of about 30,000 patients due to the siege on Sanaa Airport, and the death of more than 125,000 people who were unable to travel abroad. Tayseer pointed out that there are about 271,000 patients who are likely to die due to the continued closure of Sanaa Airport and their inability to travel abroad to receive treatment. In turn, the Executive Director of the Eye of Humanity Foundation, Qais Al Dhaheri, stated that the American-Zionist aggression against Yemen, which began on December 31, 2023 AD and continued until September 25, 2025 AD, was directly linked to the crime of genocide in the Gaza Strip, and the grave violations to which the Palestinian people are exposed. He explained that the recent aggression came to constitute a dangerous extension and escalation in the pattern of targeting, as it targeted civilians and civilian objects directly and disproportionately, in clear violation of the principles of international humanitarian law, most notably the principles of distinction and proportionality. He pointed out that this escalation reflects an attempt to pressure the Yemeni popular position rejecting the violations committed against civilians in Gaza, which raises serious questions about the use of military force as a means to impose political positions, at the expense of basic human rights. Al Dhaheri reported that during the period of this aggression, a large number of civilian casualties fell, including martyrs and wounded, including women and children, in addition to widespread destruction of infrastructure and vital facilities, which exacerbated the already existing humanitarian crisis and led to a further deterioration in the living conditions of the population. He stated that the number of martyrs as a result of the recent American, Israeli and British aggression against Yemen amounted to 683 martyrs, including 47 children, 19 women and 617 men, while the number of wounded reached 1,635, including 193 children, 133 women and 1,309 men. He pointed out that these numbers are not just dumb statistics, but rather a painful human record that documents the extent of the suffering that civilians incurred as a result of this aggression. Each number reflects the life of a person, a family that lost its breadwinner, and a childhood from which its most basic rights to security and life were taken away. He said, “These data clearly reveal a pattern of targeting of civilians directly or disproportionately, in flagrant violation of the principles of international humanitarian law. This outcome also confirms that this military escalation was not far from the political context linked to Yemen’s position rejecting the grave violations committed against civilians in Gaza.” The Executive Director of the Eye of Humanity Foundation, Qais Al Dhaheri, called on the international community, and human rights and humanitarian organizations, to assume their legal and moral responsibilities, and to work hard to open independent and transparent investigations into these violations, hold those responsible accountable, and ensure that they do not escape punishment, calling on the international community to take urgent steps to protect civilians, and to stop all forms of escalation that further exacerbate human suffering. The press conference included discussions and interventions, demanding that these files be referred to local and international courts, to prosecute criminals and murderers for these brutal crimes that devastate humanity, to ensure that they do not escape punishment.
