RIYADH/ NEW YORK/ MELBOURNE: On specific clear-cut, open strict and stern directions of Saudi regimes (Aal-e-Saud), the allied forces (which established just to destroy Iran and Shias) under the supervision of Raheel Sharif, (retired Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff), the army of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) particularly KSA’s Air Force and other right-wing rabble of KSA including ISIS/Daesh (Saudi Chapter) have killed over 1600 Yemeni children and almost 
22,000 injured and disabled during the last two years (June 2017-19) while over 86,000 more kids have been died just from starvation, figures collected by the news which have already been published in Messenger, National and PMI, data maintained by Oxfam International, UN Civilian Impact Monitoring Project, other independent and official sources, information collected during interviews with victims, doctors, paramedics, refugees, local and international journalists, NGO representatives and general people those were presented across the borders of Turkey, Syria, Yemen, KSA, Bahrain, Lebanon, Iraq and Iraq or have been living during the visit of ‘this correspondent’.
According to a report at least 335 children have been killed and another 590 injured, according to Oxfam International, citing data from the UN Civilian Impact Monitoring Project.
The bus bombing by Saudi warplanes took place in August 2018. It was linked to war crimes, with the United Nations saying the attacks have targeted civilian infrastructure and are responsible for “most direct civilian casualties.”
Saudi airstrikes hit the bus while it was on a summer school trip in the city. Initially, the coalition’s spokesperson, Col. Turki al-Malki, denied the attack but ultimately said the strike was made in error.
The Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project have estimated that more than 90,000 people have been killed. In addition to the Saudi-led aggression, Yemen has been gripped by famine and a cholera epidemic that have killed countless more in what the UN has called the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.
According to Save the Children, a humanitarian aid group, 86,000 children have died just from starvation.
A Saudi-UAE-led military coalition fighting Yemeni’s Houthi rebels has been blacklisted for a third year by the United Nations over the killing and wounding of hundreds of children.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said in the annual report submitted to the Security Council on Friday that the coalition killed and wounded 729 Yemeni children in 2018.
The figure accounts for nearly half of the total child casualties in the war-torn and impoverished country.
The UN said it verified 1,689 child casualties in Yemen last year, including the killing of 576 and the maiming of 1,113.
The toll was “often a result of attacks in densely populated areas and against civilian objects, including schools and hospitals”, Guterres said.
The report also blacklisted the Houthis, saying the rebels killed and wounded 398 children, as well as Yemeni government forces who were responsible for 58 child casualties.
The Children in Armed Conflict report also blamed Israel for the death of 56 Palestinian children and the wounding of 2,674 last year, the highest number in four years. Israel was not blacklisted, however.
Last year, “verified cases of the killing and maiming of children reached record levels globally” since monitoring began in 2005, said Guterres. A total of 24,000 “grave violations” against children was documented in 20 countries, with Afghanistan and Syria topping the list of countries with the most child casualties in afrmed conflict.
“In Afghanistan, the number of child casualties remained the highest such number in the present report (3,062) and children accounted for 28 percent of all civilian casualties,” the report said.
The figures presented above are not only official statistics accepted and acknowledged by the Yemeni government but also verified by Turkish, Bahraini, Irani, Afghani, Iraqi, Lebanoni, Pakistani and Russian authorities, local, national and international organizations/ NGOs and different media outlets but neither the KSA accepts it as genuine nor the USA and Israel are ready to consider this world most mass killings of innocent children in the history of the world yet.
