Saudi Arabia’s war in Yemen enters its eighth year

The United Nations says airstrikes and shelling by the Saudi-led coalition and Houthi rebels killed more than 2,500 Yemeni civilians last year, the highest annual death toll since the war began in 2015.

The UN’s human rights office said in a report released Tuesday that the majority of civilian casualties were caused by airstrikes, which killed 1,499 people.

The report also found that the Saudi-led coalition was responsible for the vast majority of civilian deaths, killing 2,061 people, compared to 447 killed by the Houthis.

The war has caused a humanitarian catastrophe, with millions of Yemenis facing hunger and disease

The war has created one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises, with millions of Yemenis facing hunger and disease.

The UN estimates that 24 million people, or 80% of the population, need humanitarian assistance, and that 13 million people are at risk of starvation.

The war has also caused a massive displacement crisis, with more than 4 million people forced to flee their homes.

The UN has called for an end to the war

The UN has repeatedly called for an end to the war and for a political solution to the conflict.

In a statement released Tuesday, the UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, said that the war in Yemen is “a tragedy that has caused immense suffering.”

“I urge all parties to the conflict to cease hostilities immediately and to engage in good faith in the political process,” Guterres said.
