Coalition kills 30 civilians

Tuesday 13th September 2016

THE UN confirmed yesterday that the Saudi-led coalition slaughtered 30 Yemenis during an air raid last weekend.

The report was confirmed by humanitarian co-ordinator for Yemen Jamie McGoldricks who said emergency service workers and children were among those killed by the raids.
