“These acts of aggression to deliberately and systematically target civilians and civilian objects by the terrorist, Iran-backed Houthi militia amount to war crimes.
The Joint Forces Command of the Coalition will continue to implement all necessary operational procedures to safeguard civilians and civilian objects in accordance with the customary International Humanitarian Law,” he stated.
The coalition has reported increased aerial attacks by Houthis towards civilian areas in the Kingdom in the recent weeks, using remote-operated, explosive-laden drones. Sunday’s attack is the sixth one in five days.
Last Wednesday, Riyadh said an attack caused a fire in a civilian aircraft at Abha airport.
