Sana’a - Saba:
"Human" Organization for Rights and Freedoms strongly condemned the ongoing Israeli aggression targeting Sana’a International Airport, including the bombing of the last remaining aircraft belonging to Yemen Airways, which has inflicted a new tragedy upon the Yemeni people at home and abroad.
In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), the organization emphasized that this crime is part of a series of unjustifiable violations lacking any military justification.
The statement noted that less than a month ago, the Zionist enemy had targeted three civilian aircraft at Sana’a International Airport in its airstrikes, resulting in the complete destruction of the airport’s infrastructure.
The organization deemed the continued Zionist aggression against civilian facilities a grave violation of international humanitarian law. Despite the scale of destruction, the authorities in Sana’a—recognizing the suffering of citizens at home and abroad—quickly initiated the airport’s reconstruction within a matter of days. This effort rekindled hope among Yemenis for the return of stranded nationals, enabling patients to travel for treatment, as well as pilgrims, students, and others to meet their essential travel needs.
However, the statement added, "This joy was short-lived, as Israeli warplanes returned once again, exacerbating the suffering of tens of thousands of stranded Yemenis abroad and deepening the isolation of those at home."
The "Human" Organization called on the international community, including human rights organizations and governments that champion democracy and human rights, to condemn Israel’s crimes in Yemen—a country being punished today for its stance in support of Gaza. The organization stressed that the UN Security Council and the International Criminal Court must act to prevent genocide rather than remain silent or complicit.
