In this connection, I would like to bring to the attention of your Excellency’s Government information that I have received on a series of airstrikes by Government of Saudi Arabia-led coalition forces carried out since November 2017 in civilian areas in Yemen, including on protected civilian objects, that have caused numerous deaths and serious injuries to civilians, including children . On 9 November 2015, my mandate addressed a similar communication to your Excellency’s Government (AL SAU 9/2015) concerning indiscriminate airstrikes by coalition forces in civilian areas, which lead to deaths and injuries of civilians in Yemen. I regret that thus far no response has been received to that communication and would be grateful for your prompt response. The information which I have received in recent months, and which is indicative and non-exhaustive, highlights the impact of coalition-led attacks on civilians and civilian objects in Yemen over the period November 2017 to June 2018. The allegations may be summarized as follows: On 1 November 2017, two airstrikes by the Saudi-led coalition hit the Al Layl market in the area of Olaf, in Sahaar district, Sa’adah province, killing 31 civilians, including six children, and wounding 24 others.

Yemen Displacement in Taizz and Al Hudaydah
Yemen Displacement in Taizz and Al Hudaydah Thematic report – 29 March 2018 Increased fighting in Taizz and Al Hudaydah governorates has led to the displacement of more than 80,000 people between December 2017 and mid-March 2018. The Saudi-led coalition launched the offensive following the death on 4 December of former president Saleh, with the aim of advancing north along the Red Sea coastline and capturing new territories from the Houthis including Al Hudaydah port. After some advancement, frontlines have remained stalled since January, with conflict parties largely consolidating their positions. Spikes in violence have driven further displacement. Many of the recently displaced are seeking safety away from the active frontlines in Al Hudaydah and Taizz. They are residing with their relatives, in rental accommodations, or in spontaneous settlements, while others are moving towards Aden and southern governorates. Fighting continues against the backdrop of a country strained by disrupted markets and limited food availability, a collapsing health system, and severely damaged WASH infrastructure. As Yemen enters its fourth year of war, both IDPs and host communities are exhausting their coping capacity. Taizz and Al Hudaydah are among the governorates at high risk of famine in Yemen.
