On 20 June, London’s Court of Appeal ruled that arms sales to the “coalition” are unlawful, as UK ministers have ignored war crimes in Yemen.
Court documents show that civilians were bombed soon after training sessions by British teachers. For example, 3 days after Britain provided training – from 27 July to 14 August 2015 – some 70 civilians were killed by airstrikes in Hodeidah.
On 25 June, it was reported that the U.K. government banned “new licenses” for arms exports to Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain and Egypt (including maintenance, military goods and technology contracts).
Existing licences seem to continue as usual...
Data from the Department for International Trade shows 295 extant export licences to Saudi Arabia, which means that arms exports from the UK will continue.
The UK government has authorised the sale of at least £4.7 billion ($6 billion) in arms to Saudi Arabia since March 2015.
That’s not even counting the “secret” Open Individual Export Licenses, which have not been suspended by the UK government. These open licences allow an unlimited number of arms to be exported in 5 years.
BAE Systems had 3 open licences to export Paveway bombs and Brimstone and Storm Shadow missiles.

I’ve seen stories that the USA and Germany have also stopped some exports (in a similar fashion as the UK, so continuing supplying these psychopaths with bombs)...
On 11 May, it was reported that the Houthis began their witdhrawal from the port of Hodeidah, but the coalition continued their assault: https://www.mintpressnews.com/houthi-wit...ck/258468/
So as the Western media are desperately trying to blame the Houthis for the massive amounts of Yemenis dying from starvation and bombs, they can´t use this propaganda anymore (unless people are really so braindead that they believe anything the media will tell us...).
Obviously the terrorist United Nations isn´t afraid that people will find out that it is blatantly supporting this genocide...
The UN World Food Programme announced that it won´t supply any more food to Yemen’s starving capital, Sanaa, which is still controlled by the Houthis.
The reported reason is that those “horrible” Houthis don´t agree that Yemenis have to give personal identification data to the World Food Programme: https://www.rt.com/news/463351-yemen-sau...tric-data/

Quote:We continue to support the UK government in providing equipment, support and training under government-to-government agreements between the United Kingdom and Saudi Arabia. The decision of the court does not mean that licenses to export arms to Saudi Arabia must immediately be suspended. CAAT did not ask for such an order and the court did not order it.
