700 Yemenis killed, injured in Hodeidah by Saudi mercenaries since Stockholm agreement

Governor of Yemen's Hodeidah province Mohammed Quhim has revealed that more than 200 citizens, mostly women and children, have been killed and more than 500 others injured by fire and shelling of US-Saudi aggression forces and their mercenaries since the singing of Stockholm Agreement in December, 2018.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Governor of Yemen's Hodeidah province Mohammed Quhim has revealed that more than 200 citizens, mostly women and children, have been killed and more than 500 others injured by fire and shelling of US-Saudi aggression forces and their mercenaries since the singing of Stockholm Agreement in December, 2018.

The governor said in a statement on Wednesday that the aggression forces and their mercenaries have caused damage on about 200 facilities in the province districts during the same period.

"The amount of the material damage exceeded 1.5 billion dollars, including damage caused to citizens’ homes, private and public facilities, farms and fishing centers," he added.

Quhim described the situation in Ad-Durayhimi district as catastrophic and tragic, indicating that the Saudi-mercenaries have been besieging the district with brutality for almost 13 months, dealing with its residents harshly.

He noted that dozens died in Ad-Durayhimi as a result of preventing them from going to hospitals outside the district, they were buried in temporary cemeteries because the mercenaries did not allow burying in the district’s cemeteries, and sometimes three or four persons were buried in one grave.

According to the governor, a large number of patients are still suffering amid a suspicious international silence over the crimes being committed by the Saudi-mercenaries against citizens in Ad-Durayhimi.

The governor said that the UAE occupation officers prevented the entry of a humanitarian aid convoy to the district two weeks ago.”It is regrettable that the United Nations liaison officers and the Redeployment Coordination Committee, who received the news from international organizations, did not make any briefing on what happened.”
