Insan Organization for Rights and Freedoms issued a report titled “The Ras Isa Massacre… An American War Crime in the Heart of the Red Sea.”
In a detailed report, the organization documented the crime of US aircraft targeting the Ras Isa oil port in Hodeidah in mid-April 2025. This was a clear violation of international and US law, and a deliberate attempt to mislead public opinion about the nature of the reasons for the operation, a clear manifestation of power and hegemony against developing countries.
According to the report, Insan Organization for Rights and Freedoms saw the need to document the crime, which deliberately and premeditatedly targeted the destruction of a vital facility that represents a vital lifeline for millions of civilians in Yemen.
Insan Organization presents to the public and the international community a documented report on the crime of targeting the Ras Isa oil port by US forces, which resulted in the destruction of the port’s operational infrastructure and a near-total halt to its operations, deliberately aimed at exacerbating the living crisis in Yemen.
The organization’s report includes details of the attack, including evidence and direct testimonies from staff and victims, as well as legal arguments that demonstrate how this attack amounts to a “war crime” requiring international accountability.
This document serves as a cry in the face of international silence and an affirmation of the need to end the policy of impunity that encourages the recurrence of such grave violations.
