The branch of the Supreme Council for Management and Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs and International Cooperation in Marib province on Tuesday condemned the targeting of the IDP camps in Thana Valley in Serwah district by Saudi-led aggression coalition warplane.

The Council’s branch denounced, in a statement the aggression warplane targeting the IDP camps of Thana al-Hayal and al-Swabin with 6 airstrikes causing huge damages in the displaced properties and caused fear and panic among them and killing dozens of livestock and cows.

He said the targeting was deliberate to intimidate displaced persons and force them to migrate back to areas controlled by the mercenaries of aggression in an attempt to use them as human shields.

The statement noted that the two camps are inhabited by more than 800 families and their locations have been known since their establishment five years ago.

The statement called on the United Nations and international organizations to play their rule and to pressure on the aggression coalition countries to stop targeting camps for displaced persons, villages and populated areas.

Marib province was hit by more than 40,000 air strikes during the years of aggression, which displaced thousands of families and destroyed homes, farms, infrastructure and service facilities in international silence, he said.
