Iraqi Foreign Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari has condemned the ongoing Saudi airstrikes against members of the Houthi Ansarullah movement in Yemen as “unacceptable.”

During a meeting with visiting Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Morteza Sarmadi in Baghdad on Wednesday evening, Jaafari stated that his country is strongly opposed to Riyadh’s onslaught against crisis-ridden Yemen, and considers it a duty to express such stance.

The Iraqi foreign minister further noted that Baghdad had earlier rejected the use of force in Yemen, and said military intervention by Saudi Arabia would complicate the situation.

"Iraq expresses its concern at the military intervention in Yemeni affairs, which leads to complicating the situation further," the Iraqi Foreign Ministry said in a statement on March 26.

The statement added, "Our stance is to reject the use of force and to call on all Yemeni sides to put their differences behind through serious discussion."

Sarmadi, for his part, stressed the need for transparent stances from world countries as well as rational initiatives in order to stop the aggression and bloodshed in Yemen.

The two senior officials also urged world countries and international organizations to honor their humanitarian commitments, and deliver medical supplies to crisis-stricken Yemenis.

Earlier on Wednesday, Iraqi Parliament speaker Salim al-Jabouri and Sarmadi voiced concerns over the critical situation in Middle East and the potential outcomes of the Saudi military strikes against Yemen.

The two sides also called for a cessation of the vicious airborne assaults, the resumption of dialogue among all Yemeni political factions, and the resolution of the crisis in Yemen by peaceful methods.

Saudi Arabia’s air campaign in Yemen started on March 26 in a bid to restore power to fugitive former Yemeni President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh.

Hadi stepped down in January and refused to reconsider the decision despite calls by the Houthi Ansarullah movement.

On March 25, the embattled president fled Aden, where he had sought to set up a rival power base, to Riyadh after Ansarullah revolutionaries advanced on Aden.

The Ansarullah fighters took control of the Yemeni capital, Sana’a, in September 2014 and are currently moving southward. The revolutionaries said the Hadi government was incapable of properly running the affairs of the country and containing the growing wave of corruption and terror.

The Saudi air raids that entered their seventh day on Wednesday have so far claimed the lives of nearly 200 people, including 62 children.

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan accused Iran on Thursday of trying to dominate the Middle East and said its efforts have begun annoying Ankara, as well as Saudi Arabia and Gulf Arab countries.

Turkey earlier said it supports the Saudi-led military operation against Houthi rebels in Yemen and called on the militia group and its "foreign supporters" to abandon acts which threaten peace and security in the region.

"Iran is trying to dominate the region," said Erdoğan, who is due to visit Tehran in early April. "Could this be allowed? This has begun annoying us, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf countries. This is really not tolerable and Iran has to see this," he added in a press conference.

A dark night without electricity turned bright as mid-day Monday as jets bombed what apparently was a storage area for Scud missiles in the Faj Attan district of Yemen’s capital.

Balls of fire shot into the air and thunderous blasts shook the city as aircraft, presumed to be from Saudi Arabia, hit the missile depot.

The explosions added to what already was the most intense night of aerial combat over the city since Saudi Arabia began its Decisive Storm bombing campaign last Thursday. As jets streaked overhead and explosions echoed across the landscape, anti-aircraft artillery rattled through the night.

For the first time, the bombing continued into the daylight hours, leaving residents little respite from the blasts.

“It has been pure horror,” said Ahmed al Hobishsi, who owns a grocery store. The air campaign has snuffed out what little business he had, he said.

Elsewhere in the country, the conflict between Houthi rebels and what remains of the internationally recognized government also intensified. The Houthis launched a massive attack in an effort to seize Aden, the seaport that had become the refuge of Yemen’s president, Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, before he fled the country, and were countered by a naval bombardment from Egyptian ships offshore.

Houthi rebels and Hadi loyalists were reported battling at the Aden airport. Conditions were reported grim in many locations. In al Hawta, the capital of Lahj province, a resident reached by phone said that bodies have been left in the streets for days.

Meanwhile, in northern Yemen, aid organizations reported that at least 45 civilians, most of them women and children, had been killed when an aircraft dropped its explosives on a camp for displaced people.

According to local humanitarian organizations, the strike happened in the early afternoon on a camp providing shelter and relief for those internally displaced by 2009 fighting in the bordering province of Sadah.

Most of the residents had lived at the camp since 2009, when they fled fighting in neighboring Sadah province.

Residents in Hajjah province, which abuts Saudi Arabia, said there were rumors of heavy military equipment being moved on the other side of the border, perhaps in preparation for a ground invasion of Yemen.

The reports of Egyptian ships firing along the southern coast were the first involvement of naval vessels in the conflict since Saudi Arabia launched its campaign against Iranian-backed Houthi rebels March 25.

An Egyptian ship targeted a group of Houthis and forces loyal to former President Ali Abdullah Saleh in the port of Shaqrah, in the southern province of Abyan. Additional air strikes targeted the Aden airport.

Around 10 p.m., an air strike targeted a mosque and a bus full of passengers in the area of Khour Maksar, in the middle of Aden. According to witnesses, seven civilians were killed and eight others wounded.

Conditions were deteriorating throughout the country. All Yemeni airports are closed, stranding thousands who’d hoped to leave the country as well as those booked to fly home.

Saudi Arabia and its allies have blocked all the country’s seaports, though a group of Yemeni refugees managed to make it to Somaliland on the African coast, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.

Basic services are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain. Electricity is available for five hours or fewer per day in the capital, and fresh vegetables and fruits are in short supply.

An accurate count of casualties is not available. An independent Sanaa-based human rights group, Mwatana, said 27 civilians, including 15 children, had died in a single strike on the Sanaa airport.

Conditions are no better in the south, where residents of Aden report shops, banks, schools and even ATMs no longer function. Most of the pharmacies in the city have run out of eye drops, they say, after residents sought relief from smoke that filled the city after Saudi aircraft bombed an ammunition warehouse on Hadeed Mountain.

In al Hawta, in Lahj province, residents said that the city has been without water and electricity for five days. Doctors in the town’s Ibn Khldoun public hospital said only a handful of the facility’s 300 employees had made it to work.

Another unknown is whether the air strikes have weakened the Houthi rebels, who’ve controlled Sanaa since January and appeared Monday to still be pushing to capture Aden and other towns in the south.

Hopes for peace negotiations have faded, as battles seemed to have been joined throughout the country.

The prospect of an invasion by Saudi troops has prompted predictions that even those opposed to the Houthi rebels would feel obligated to resist the Saudis.

“We will all be Houthis if troops come to our country” said Ali al Munah, a shop owner in Sanaa. “This is our home and no one is allowed to break into it.”

Houthis strike civilian homes in Yemen's Aden

Yemeni Houthi rebels striked civilian homes in Aden's port district of Mualla using army tanks, residents told Al Arabiya News Channel on Saturday night.

The strikes killed many, including children, the residents said, adding that parts of the southern port city have been without water or electricity for two days, according to Reuters news agency.

Residents said life was becoming unbearable. "How long can people live without water or electricity?" said Mohammad Fara'a.

Another resident, Hassan Abdallah, said people were using a long-disused well at one of the mosques to get water.

Meanwhile, in the southern city of Dalea, Houthis have reportedly executed seven civilians the group was holding as captives.

The Houthis and militias of the deposed leader Ali Abdullah Saleh seized power in the capital Sanaa in February and last month advanced on the port city of Aden, Hadi's stronghold, forcing him to go into exile.

The latest fighting is one of many conflicts in Yemen, where mass demonstrations inspired by the wider Arab uprisings of 2011 led to Saleh's resignation after three decades in power plagued by southern separatism, tribal unrest and al-Qaeda militancy.

Iran stuurt marine naar kust Jemen

Iran heeft woensdag marineschepen naar de Golf van Aden en de Rode Zee gestuurd om de internationale scheepsroutes te helpen beveiligen.

Dit zei het plaatsvervangend hoofd van de Iraanse marine, schout-bij-nacht Habibollah Sayyari, bij het afscheid van de schepen in de haven Bandar Abbas.

De wateren waar de marinevaartuigen naartoe gaan, liggen voor de kust van Jemen. In dat land is Iran in conflict met onder meer Saudi-Arabië. Saudi-Arabië bombardeert in Jemen rebellen die steun krijgen van Iran.

Saudi-Arabië heeft in verband met de strijd in Jemen net als Egypte ook marineschepen naar de Golf van Aden gestuurd.

Al-Qaeda zet prijs op hoofd Houthi-leider

Gepubliceerd: 08 april 2015 18:19 Laatste update: 08 april 2015 20:00

Saudi-Arabië heeft onverwachte steun gekregen in de strijd tegen de Houthi-rebellen in Jemen. Terreurbeweging al-Qaeda heeft namelijk 20 kilo goud op het hoofd gezet van de leider van de rebellen, Abdel-Malek al-Houthi.

Via een poster die online wordt verspreid, wordt er naast de rebellenleider ook een oproep gedaan de voormalige president van Jemen, Ali Abdullah Saleh, gevangen te nemen of te doden. Beide leiders worden de "twee hoofden van het kwaad" genoemd.

De Houthi-rebellen zijn sjiitisch en hebben door hun opmars in Jemen de soennieten van al-Qaeda in het nauw gebracht. Saudi-Arabië is ook overwegend soennitisch.

Dat de VS meekijkt neemt niet weg dat 100% van de aanvallen gedaan wordt door de Arabische coalitie.

'Iraniërs gearresteerd in Aden'
Lokale milities in Jemen zeggen dat ze zaterdag twee Iraanse militairen hebben aangehouden in de havenstad Aden. De twee militairen zouden Houthi-rebellen hebben geadviseerd in de gevechten rond de havenstad.

Iran heeft tot nu toe ten stelligste ontkend dat er militairen van dat land in Jemen actief zijn.

Een coalitie onder leiding van Saudi-Arabië probeert met luchtaanvallen de Houthi's terug te drijven. Die hebben de hoofdstad Sanaa al in bezit en dreigen ook Aden in te nemen.

Iran steunt de soennitische Houthi's terwijl het overwegend sjiitische Saudi-Arabië de regering van president president Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi steunt.

Koning Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud vaardigde dinsdag een decreet uit waarin staat dat de elitetroepen van de Nationale Garde zullen deelnemen aan operaties op de grond in Jemen. Dat melden diverse internationale media.

Saudi-Arabië heeft de leiding over de coalitie die tot nu toe alleen met bombardementen de Houthi-rebellen probeert tegen te houden. Die hebben een groot deel van Jemen in handen en dreigen steeds meer land te veroveren. Het land verkeert in chaos sinds de rebellen vorig jaar de hoofdstad Sanaa in bezit namen.

De sjiitische rebellen worden gesteund door het eveneens sjiitische Iran. Het overwegend soennitische Saudi-Arabië staat achter president Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi die Jemen is ontvlucht.

Saudi Arabia's billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal tweeted an unexpected message for the 100 fighter pilots involved in airstrikes against Yemen – each would be awarded a Bentley. The tweet, which was later deleted, sparked anger online.

“I congratulate our wise leaders on the victory of Operation Decisive Storm and the beginning of Operation Restoring Hope,” bin Talal appeared to tweet on Tuesday. It followed an announcement of a new phase in the Saudi-led campaign in Yemen.

“To recognize the one hundred participating Saudi pilots I am pleased to present them with 100 Bentley cars,” he said, according to screenshots of the message.

But the fighter pilots couldn't allow themselves to get too excited, because the tweet was later deleted without explanation. Some Saudi Arabian reports suggest the prince's account was hacked, though this has not been confirmed.

The Twittersphere was unsurprisingly full of opinions on the tweet, with many reminding of the human cost of the operation in Yemen and disgusted that the loss of lives could be rewarded with luxury cars.

At least 944 people were killed and 3,487 wounded in Operation Decisive Storm, according to the World Health Organization.

Others mentioned that while bin Talal was offering to pay for 100 Bentleys, he had failed to provide even one emergency vehicle to Yemen amid the fatal airstrikes.

Bin Talal's tweet came after Saudi Arabia announced an end to Operation Decisive Storm on Tuesday.

"Operation Decisive Storm has achieved its goals...[including] removing the threat to Saudi Arabia and neighboring countries, especially in terms of heavy weapons," said a statement carried by Saudi state news agency SPA.

The operation was aimed at Houthi rebels who had seized large areas of Yemen, including the capital, Sanaa, forcing President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi to escape to Saudi Arabia.

With a fortune valued at nearly US$23 billion by Forbes, 60-year-old Bin Talal is the richest member of the Saudi monarchy and is among the richest men in the world. He is a nephew of the late Saudi King Abdullah.

Volgens Iran had het vliegtuig hulpgoederen bij zich, zoals voedsel en medicijnen. Iran heeft de vervanger van de Saudische ambassadeur in Teheran woensdag op het matje geroepen.

Saudische straaljagers bombardeerden dinsdag de landingsbaan waar de Iraanse vliegtuigen wilden landen, waardoor ze moesten terugkeren. „Onmenselijk” noemde een woordvoerster van het Iraanse ministerie van Buitenlandse Zaken de actie.

Volgens Saudi-Arabië waren de Iraanse vliegtuigen het Jemenitische luchtruim „binnengedrongen” en hadden ze waarschuwingen genegeerd.

Yemeni people have staged a large demonstration in front of the United Nations’ headquarters in the capital of Sana’a to protest against Saudi Arabia’s aggression against their country, Press TV reports.

The protesters condemned on Monday the Saudi military campaign and also slammed the air and sea blockade on Yemen, which prevents the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Yemeni people.

“We have come to the UN headquarters to denounce Saudi Arabia’s continued airstrikes that have mostly targeted civilians. Such attacks do not target a specific group as they claim," said protester (pictured below), adding, “It is a genocidal war against a poor people.”





“Yemenis are facing a crime against humanity. Saudi Arabia is preventing deliveries of basic food accommodation, fuel and medicine,” said protester (pictured below), adding, “It is a shame on the world to keep silent on such atrocities committed against civilians.”





The demonstration came after dozens were killed and many others injured after Saudi jets targeted the Wadi Bani area and the al-Saddah district in the western province of Ibb on early Monday.

Meanwhile, the popular committees, loyal to Ansurallah fighters, have made major advances especially in the province of Ma'rib, which has been described by observers as the last stronghold of al-Qaeda-linked militants.

Saudi Arabia launched its war against Yemen on March 26 - without a UN mandate - in a bid to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement and to restore power to the country’s fugitive former president, Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, who is a staunch ally of Riyadh. The strikes came in the wake of advances by Yemeni revolutionary forces, backed by Ansarullah fighters.

On April 21, Riyadh announced the end of the first phase of its military operation, but airstrikes have continued with Saudi bombers targeting different areas across the country in a new phase.

The Saudis claim the airstrikes only target military positions. However, reports show civilians and infrastructure in civilian areas are being attacked.

In a recent report, Human Rights Watch said evidence shows Saudi Arabia has used cluster munitions in the northern province of Sa’ada over the past weeks.

The Saudi military campaign has reportedly claimed the lives of over 1,000 people, including women and children, so far and injured thousands more.

quote:

Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, the secretary general of Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement, says the Al Saud regime has failed to achieve its goals in its brutal military aggression against the Yemeni nation.

“Tell me about a single objective that has been achieved. Has Saudi Arabia restored the so-called legitimacy in Yemen? Has it managed to prevent the expansion of the Yemeni army and popular committees? Has it confiscated the arms of Ansarullah? Has it been able to return [former fugitive Yemeni president, Abd Rabbuh] Mansur Hadi to his country?” Nasrallah asked in a televised address on the latest developments in the region on Tuesday.

Riyadh launched its military aggression against its southern neighbor on March 26 - without a United Nations mandate - in a bid to undermine Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement and to restore power to Hadi, a staunch ally of Saudis.

The Hezbollah chief rejected as lies the Riyadh regime’s claims of victory in the war on Yemen, asking, “Do Arab citizens accept such deception and misinformation? As an Arab citizen I want information about the objectives that were allegedly realized.”

He further said the Saudi kingdom seeks to gain dominance over Yemen by launching a bloody war on the neighboring nation, saying, “Have they managed to achieve their real objective by restoring their hegemony over Yemen?”

He lauded Yemeni people’s resistance against the Saudi aggression, saying Riyadh could not weaken the Yemenis.

“We are before a clear and obvious Saudi failure and a clear Yemeni victory. This is the result of the firmness and steadfastness of the Yemenis,” the Hezbollah chief said.

On April 21, Riyadh announced the end of the first phase of its military operation, but airstrikes have continued with Saudi bombers targeting different areas across the country in a new phase.

The Saudis claim the airstrikes only target military positions. However, reports show civilians and infrastructure in civilian areas are being attacked. Recent reports also show Saudis have used cluster munitions in the northern province of Sa’ada.

The attacks have so far killed over 1,200 Yemenis, including many women and children, and injured thousands of others.

Riyadh declared the end of “Decisive Storm” operation against Yemen and announced the beginning of a new phase dubbed “Operation Restoring Hope.”

“The launch of Operation Renewal of Hope was an attempt to cover up for the failure of the first round of the war against Yemen,” he stressed.

He further criticized Saudi Arabia and its backers in the aggression against Yemen for their hypocrisy in the war and blocking humanitarian aid to the Yemeni people.

“They claimed that they want to fight terrorism but they are offering arms to al-Qaeda and bombing the popular committees to prevent them from reaching the regions where al-Qaida is operating. They have prevented any humanitarian aid from reaching Yemen,” he stressed.
Nasrallah added that the main reason behind the assault on Yemen is “that Saudi Arabia is seeking hegemony.”

He further praised the victories by Yemeni people, calling on the international community to step up efforts to help the Yemenis.

“The world has a responsibility to confront this aggression's repercussions at the humanitarian level,” the Hezbollah chief added, condemning Saudi Arabia’s bombing of Yemeni and destroying the infrastructure of the country.

He said, “Exerting pressure by killing children and women is a futile policy.”

quote:

Ansarullah’s military power to stand in two fronts against the al-Qaeda and ISIL terrorist groups has stunned Saudi Arabia, one of the movement’s leaders said on Monday.

Jaber Ahmad al-Nuaimi referred to the Saturday grenade attacks against the positions of ISIL Takfiri terrorists in several parts of Yemen, and told FNA that “these attacks show that the resistance and Ansarullah are present everywhere and despite its tight engagement in suppressing the terrorists and pro-Hadi militias, Ansarullah is ready for confrontation against the Saudi aggression with open eyes and resistance.”

“Ansarullah’s operations have been successful in obtaining all objectives in a way that several positions of the ISIL and pro-Hadi militias have been destroyed,” he added.

Nuaimi underlined that different parts of Yemen can become a scene of popular forces’ tough confrontation against the al-Qaeda or ISIL terrorists at any moment.

His remarks came as the Ansarullah fighters along with army units made fresh advances in the Southern Yemeni province of Aden on Sunday, killing large groups of Saudi-backed terrorists and militias.

The Ansarullah popular fighters made progress in several areas of Tawahi district in Aden and inflicted heavy casualties on al-Qaeda terrorists and pro-Hadi militants.

Also, Ansarullah leaders announced on Sunday the seizure of a large number of Saudi tanks and missiles sent to the Al-Qaeda and pro-Hadi forces in Yemen.

“Saudi Arabia has been sending weapons to the terrorists since months before starting the military aggression against Yemen,” Ali Mohsen al-Buraimi told FNA.

“With the help of the army and revolutionary committees, Ansarullah seized several trucks carrying weapons through the Saudi-Yemeni land border,” he added.

Buraimi said that the arms cargo included tens of missiles, tanks and even helicopters which were to be used by the terrorists and the militia supporting the fugitive president Mansour Hadi.

“Saudi Arabia is the source of terrorism and a supporter of terrorists in Yemen, but the Yemeni nation will stand against this aggression,” he added.

Also on Friday, Ansarullah revolutionaries announced the seizure of a Saudi surveillance drone in the province of Sa’ada.

The Ansarullah revolutionaries captured the drone, which had parachute landed due to a technical fault, while patrolling the area on Friday.

Saudi Arabia has been striking Yemen for 40 days now to restore power to fugitive president Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh. The Saudi-led aggression has so far killed at least 3,163 Yemenis, including hundreds of women and children.

Hadi stepped down in January and refused to reconsider the decision despite calls by Ansarullah revolutionaries of the Houthi movement.

Despite Riyadh’s claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi warplanes are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures.

On April 21, the monarchy declared end to Yemen airstrikes after five weeks of bombings, but airstrikes are still underway.

The Yemeni tribes can no more bear the Saudi aggression and the imposed siege against their country, a leader warned on Monday.

“The Yemeni nation and tribes will no more show patience about the aggression and the siege imposed by Saudi Arabia and its allies,” tribal and religious leader Sheikh Ali Sanan al-Qouli was quoted as saying by the Yemeni news agency Khabar on Monday.

“We condemn this crime of the Saudis that no wise or even criminal person would commit. Yemen’s nation and its important tribes have always turned Yemen into a grave for the aggressors all throughout the history,” he added.

Qouli called on Riyadh to stop its illogical acts, and warned, “The Yemeni nation has not and will not allow anyone to occupy even an inch of its homeland.”

In a relevant statement in April, the Political Council of Ansarullah Movement condemned the Saudi-led coalition’s continued airstrikes on Yemen, and warned Riyadh officials of Yemen’s crushing response.

Ansarullah urged the Saudi officials to reconsider their policies towards Yemen, or wait for their decisive military response.

“We do not need missiles to stand against the Saudis’ aggression,” the Yemeni revolutionary movement said.

Saudi Arabia launched its bombing campaign against Yemen on March 26 in an attempt to restore power to fugitive President Mansour Hadi, a staunch ally of Riyadh.

According to FNA tallies, the Monarchy’s attacks have so far claimed the lives of at least 3,612 civilians, mostly women and children.

According to a recent report by Freedom House Foundation, nearly seven weeks of Saudi airstrikes have claimed the lives of 3,979 Yemeni people so far while more than 6,887 others have been wounded.

The foundation further said that most of the victims of the deadly Saudi campaign are civilians, including a large number of women and children.

The group noted that the actual death toll is much higher as it does not include hundreds of people listed as missing.

Thousands of residential buildings have been destroyed and hundreds of civil and public facilities were reduced to rubble as a result of the bombardments by Saudi warplanes on the Yemeni cities and towns, the group said.

Meanwhile, the UN Food and Agriculture Organization has recently warned of a “catastrophic” humanitarian situation in Yemen, saying more than 15 million Yemenis are suffering from food insecurity in the wake of Saudi airstrikes.

Dominique Burgeon, the emergencies director at the Rome-based Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), said on Wednesday that the Saudi attacks have caused severe shortages in water, fuel and medical aid in Yemen.

He also urged the international community to help lift the Yemenis out of the situation by allocating funds and resuming trade with the war-ravaged country.

Saudi Arabia started its military aggression against Yemen on March 26 - without a UN mandate - in a bid to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement, which currently controls the capital, Sana’a, and other major provinces, and to restore power to the fugitive former president, Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, who is a staunch ally of Riyadh.

According to the latest UN figures, the Saudi military campaign has so far claimed the lives of over 1,400 people and injured close to 6,000 others, roughly half of whom have been civilians.

The Saudi military has fired over a dozen rockets into Yemen in flagrant violation of a “cease-fire” declared by Riyadh itself amid its military aggression against the impoverished country.

On Friday afternoon, Saudi forces fired least eight rockets at the al-Mazraq camp in Yemen’s northwestern province of Hajjah, which is close to the Saudi border and located about 300 kilometers (186 miles) northwest of the capital, Sana’a.

There were no immediate reports of possible casualties, Arabic-language al-Masirah satellite television network reported.

Separately, six rockets fired by Saudi forces slammed into al-Husamah area in the northwestern province of Sa’ada.

The developments came only a day after the Yemeni army issued a stern threat against Saudi Arabia, saying any violation of the “truce,” which was declared on May 12, will be met with a strong response.

The so-called ceasefire went into force nearly seven weeks after Saudi Arabia started its military aggression against Yemen - without a UN mandate - in a bid to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement, which currently controls the capital and major provinces, and to restore power to the fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, who is a staunch ally of Riyadh.

UN Humanitarian Coordinator for Yemen Johannes Van der Klaauw said on Friday that over 1,600 people have been killed and more than 6,200 injured in Yemen since conflict intensified there in late March.

“The impact of the conflict has shown that it has a dreadful toll on civilians. Two months into the conflict that have been recorded, and these are conservative figures, more than 1,600 people killed and more than 6,200 injured by airstrikes and also [from] fighting on the ground,” the official said.

He added that some 450,000 people have been displaced as a result of the continuing violence.

Yemeni army has shot down a Saudi warplane northeast of the northern city of Sa'ada, as Al Saud regime continues its aerial attacks against its southern neighbor unabated.

According to Yemen's al-Masirah television, the Saudi plane was downed in Kataf district of the province.

Earlier in the day, another Saudi F-16 fighter jet was downed in the Bayt Khayran area of the district of Bani Harith in the north of the northwestern province of Sana’a.

The fighter jet had reportedly conducted a number of airstrikes against Yemen’s al-Dailami air base.

Saudi jets have been carrying out military strikes against Yemen since March 26.

On May 11, Ansarullah fighters brought down a Moroccan fighter jet violating the country’s airspace in the Noshour Valley in the northern province of Sa’ada.

Meanwhile, Saudi military attacks against Yemen continue to claim lives.

According to media outlets on Sunday, Saudi warplanes targeted the area of Jabal Naqim in the eastern part of the Yemeni capital city of Sana’a as well as Faj Attan in the southern part of the city.

Yemeni air defense forces fired at the Saudi fighter jets and forced them to leave the area.

Saudi Arabia started its military aggression against Yemen on March 26 -- without a UN mandate -- in a bid to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement, which currently controls Sana’a and other major provinces, and to restore power to Yemen’s fugitive former president, Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, who is a staunch ally of Riyadh.

The United Nations (UN) says, since March 19, over 1,800 people have been killed and 7,330 injured due to the conflict in Yemen

Afschuwlijk dit, die misdadigers uit saoudi arabie vernietigen de hele regio en dat met hulp van de amerikanen. Dit werelderfgoed is/ was wonderschoon en ontzettemd belangrijk..

BUITENLAND De afvaardiging van de Houthi-rebellen is niet zoals afgesproken afgereisd naar Genève voor de vredesonderhandelingen. Het vliegtuig dat voor ze was gereserveerd is zonder de groep vertrokken. Dat meldt persbureau AP vanuit Sanaa. Het is nu de vraag of de onderhandelingen onder leiding van de Verenigde Naties nog door gaan.
De afvaardiging van de Jemenitische president in ballingschap, Hadi, was zaterdagochtend al wel aangekomen. De VN had gisteren al gezegd dat de start van de gesprekken was uitgesteld tot maandag “door onvoorziene omstandigheden”.

De shi’itische rebellen hadden vorige week toegezegd aan te schuiven bij de onderhandelingen. Een vertegenwoordiger zegt nu dat het de Houthi’s niet lekker zit dat de ene afvaardiging de ‘zittende regering’ presenteert en de andere, die van de Houthi’s, wordt gezien als de representanten van de ‘coup’. Volgens de rebellen zijn de gesprekken er bovendien alleen maar op gericht om hen uit Sanaa te laten terugtrekken, terwijl de Houthi’s aan een meerpartijenoplossing willen werken.

GESPREKKEN MISLUKTEN AL EERDER
Het is niet de eerste keer dat de door de VN geïnitieerde onderhandelingen mislukken. Eind vorige maand liep een poging stuk omdat president Hadi weigerde te komen. Hij eiste toen dat de Houthi’s eerst alle veroverde steden en dorpen moesten verlaten voordat hij met de rebellen in gesprek wilde gaan.

In Jemen zelf werden de luchtaanvallen onder leiding van Saoedi-Arabië voortgezet. In hoofdstad Sanaa zouden daarbij vandaag zes burgers zijn omgekomen. Het land steunt het regime van Hadi, die door de internationale gemeenschap nog steeds wordt gezien als de legitieme machthebber in het land. Hadi werd op 22 januari door de Houthi-rebellen verdreven uit het land.
