TAIZ-SABA
The Human Rights Information and Training Center (HRITC) said that the Houthi rebel fighters besieging the central Yemen city of Taiz killed and injured 39 civilians during November alone.

In a monthly report released this week, the HRITC said that the Houthis "killed 20 civilians including nine children and three women, seven of them by the rebel group's snipers" and five of the children by rockets fired into the densely populated neighborhoods of the city.

It also documented "the injury of nineteen civilians including 14 children and three women." "Most of the injuries are critical and some of them have caused permanent disabilities," said the HRITC.

The source said that 24 houses, 12 public and private offices and nine vehicles were partially damaged in the rebels' rocket shelling.

It reported a miserable humanitarian and health crisis as a result of the three years long siege that has cut the city's civilians off humanitarian and medical supplies, goods and relief aid.

"Nine cases of diphtheria infections were found in (the same month) November in Mokha, Maqbana, Salah and Shammaytein districts," it says.

"Four hundred kidney failure patients are likely to die because their relevant medicines are run out of."

It also pointed to mass displacements in al-Qooz and al-Ashrooh areas and the rebels' plantation of hundreds of landmines in many evacuated villages to prevent the future return of these displaces.
