Taiz: Over 400 casualties in past month alone
[03/06/2017 07:23]


TAIZ-SABA
As many as 131 persons were killed and 320 others were injured, including women and children in Taiz, last May, as a result of the Saleh-Houthi militia's military escalation in the province, said the Coalition for Humanitarian Relief (CHR) in its new report.

Among the killed are 21 children and two women, and among the injured, are 28 children and 11 women, said the CHR.
"Of the 11 injured women, eight have been maimed due to the loss of a body organ." Thirty one houses and various installations, public and private, were damaged in the rebel militia's intensified shelling, said the report adding that twelve of the militia's bouts of hysterical shelling felt like and indeed were real massacres for children alongside the adults.

"The city lacks water, power, garbage collection and health and medical services. Relief organizations have not come to the city, even though a militia-laid siege around the city has been partially broken since mid- August 2016," added the report.

The report said 736 families had to move or were forcibly driven out of their houses in Hedhran, Arrobayee, Atta'iziyah, Alafeerah, al-Kadaha and Mokha areas, in the southern countryside of Taiz, during the same month. "These families received no re-settlement or relief aid, as most of the donor organizations have stopped sending aid to Taiz."

The CHR called upon all humanitarian organizations to shoulder their moral responsibility seriously and throw a lifeline of food and other relief aid to the city through its sole but safe supply route in its southwest.
