Eye Humanity Center for Rights and Development in Sanaa announced today that three Yemeni children were killed and 6 others, including a child, were most severely injured, as the Saudi-led coalition's spy planes bombed Al-Sharjah village in Al-Jarrahi District in Al-Hudaydah.

The Center condemned this heinous crime, which, along with other similar crimes, is considered a war crime, according to the legal definition provided by international humanitarian law. It also called for "the formation of an international commission of inquiry to investigate the crimes committed by the countries of aggression and their affiliated militias against innocent civilians in the border districts of Saada."

The Eye Humanity Center also condemned the silence of the international community and international bodies and organizations, at the forefront of which is the United Nations, which stand idly doing nothing about the crimes committed by the countries of aggression and their mercenaries against the Yemenis.

Earlier, the Center issued a report documenting "the crimes of the US-Saudi aggression during the 2800 days of the aggression against Yemen."

It also documented in a statement the martyrdom of more than 18,013 Yemeni citizens, and the injury of 29,660 others, totaling 47,673, during the aforementioned period.
