Statement of Condemnation
Insan Organization for Rights and Freedoms condemns the unlawful attacks carried out by American and British aircraft on the Yemeni capital, Sana'a, and other cities in the middle of the night on Sunday, February 25, 2024. These attacks resulted in the martyrdom of one civilian and the injury of six others.
The martyr in these airstrikes was Saber Mohammed Amir Ghalib from Taiz Governorate, Mawqbanah District, at the age of 25. The following individuals were injured:
1. Rafiq Abdullah Mohammed Hassan, aged 16.
2. Wathiq Abdullah Amir Ghalib, aged 25.
3. Abdul Samad Mohammed Ahmed Ghalib, aged 15.
4. Hamam Qaid Amir Ghalib, aged 32.
5. Ahmed Mohammed Ahmed Ghalib, aged 23.
6. Saqr Hameed Hamed Ghalib, aged 22.
All of them are from Mawqbanah District, Taiz Governorate.
These attacks represent a blatant violation of international law and an unjustifiable act of aggression. The airstrikes deliberately targeted densely populated civilian areas in Sana'a, causing significant material damage to the properties and homes of the citizens. This deliberate act of terrorizing innocent civilians and causing harm to them in the middle of the night is a condemned criminal act.
We urge the United States of America and Britain to cease their disregard for international laws and to respect the sovereignty of nations. They must refrain from showcasing their power against civilians. We hold them accountable for exacerbating the situation and expanding the scope of the conflict.
Furthermore, we call upon the United Nations, the international community, and human rights organizations to break their silence and take action against these violations.
