One child dies every 10 minutes in Yemen -

... & no one cares

In 2016, UNICEF already reported that every 10 minutes a child younger than 5 died of “preventable causes”.
Since then, many, many stories have been published that “more than 10,000” Yemenis died because of the war.

Let´s do the math. One child per 10 minutes, is more than 1000 per week. That´s more than 52,000 per year.
This means that more than 178,000 children under 5 died from 2016 till the end of this month (May 2019).
Since 2016, the humanitarian catastrophe has gotten even worse.

The Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED) has caluculated that on top of that from March 2015, till November 2018 between 75,000 and 80,000 direct casualties from the bombs have died.
With more than 3000 Yemenis dying per month as a direct result from the violence that makes between 103,000 to 108,000.

This makes a low estimate for the total number of dead Yemenis since March 2015, when the bombing campaign was started - 280,000.
This doesn’t include children older than 4 years.
I would be suprised as the total death toll is lower than 560,000.

The United Nations blatantly supports the genocide, by condemning the Houthis but not a single resolution against the war by the “coalition”, with arms from the US, France, UK, Netherlands and Germany amongst others.

There is even evidence on motive...
Yemen has an important strategic position and plans include an oil pipeline from Saudi Arabia.
Yemeni President from 1978-2012 Ali Abdullah Saleh was ousted and later murdered because he always opposed this.

Saleh was replaced by the good big oil puppet Abd Rubbuh Mansour Hadi, who was “democratically elected” in elections where he was the only candidate for president.
The UN has condemned the Houthis in a resoultion for fighting against the so-called “internationally recognised” government of Hadi (never mind that he isn’t supported by the Yemen population): https://www.lawfulpath.com/forum/viewtop...t=40#p5855
