“Bombing the Ras Isa fuel port is not just an attack on infrastructure, it’s an attack on the lifelines that keep millions of Yemenis alive,” Aisha Jumaan, president of the Yemen Relief and Reconstruction Foundation, told Antiwar.com.
“Without fuel, hospitals will cease to function, clean water will be scarce, and food supplies will diminish. We saw this during the Saudi blockade on Yemen where fuel shortages crippled hospitals, cut off clean water, halted farming, and stifled humanitarian aid,” Jumaan said.
All war crimes are appalling, but it’s truly disgusting when you attack civilians, wait for first responders to arrive at the scene and proceed to attack again, killing them too. Just another act of US terrorism in a long history of death, destruction, and destabilization.
