Geneva-Sana
The United Nations has confirmed that the coalition led by the Saudi regime committed war crimes in Yemen in various forms and methods, pointing out that the United States, France and Britain are also complicit in these crimes.
"The United States, France and Britain are complicit in war crimes in Yemen by providing materiel, information and logistical support to the Saudi-led coalition," the UN team of experts in Yemen said in their latest reports of abuses during the fifth year of Saudi aggression.
The experts said they had drawn up a secret list of suspected war criminals based on investigations they had conducted and sent to UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet, including dozens of senior military officials of the Saudi regime and its allies.
The report pointed out that the coalition carried out air strikes "violate the principles of distinction, proportionality and precaution and used starvation as a method of warfare, which may amount to war crimes," pointing out that the "legality of the transfer of weapons by France, Britain, the United States and other countries is still in doubt and is the subject of many Judicial proceedings in local courts. ”
The report concluded that a joint incident assessment team set up by the Saudi Coalition Abuse Review System had not blamed anyone for a strike that killed civilians, raising "concern about the impartiality of its investigations."
The Special Envoy of the Secretary-General of the United Nations to Yemen, Martin Griffiths yesterday called for an investigation into the massacre committed by the Saudi aggression planes bombing a prison that includes prisoners in Dhamar province, which left dozens of dead and wounded, describing the massacre as a tragedy.
