Airstrike hits bus full of children


"The Saudi-led military coalition fighting in Yemen’s war has said it will investigate an airstrike last week which hit a bus of children returning from a picnic."

"The Red Cross says last Thursday’s attack killed at least 51 people, including 40 children, after a missile hit the stationary vehicle in a market in Dahyan, in rebel-controlled Saada province."

"Footage of distressed children covered in blood arriving at medical centres sparked outrage around the world. The incident has also reignited debate over the role of Western countries such as the UK and US in supporting the coalition fighting Houthi rebels through both arms sales and operational support."
