Trump's Yemen Strike: A Violation of Humanitarian Law

A recent report by Amnesty International reveals that a US military strike on a detention center in Sa'ada, Yemen, killed 61 immigrants and injured dozens of Ethiopian civilians.

The attack, which occurred during the Trump administration's Operation Rough Rider, is considered an indiscriminate attack under international humanitarian law and should be investigated as a war crime, according to Amnesty International.

"I was buried under the rubble and after about one hour my brother came and pulled me out," said a survivor. "I had a head injury and I lost sight in one eye. It is a miracle we survived and got out of that place."

Author's summary: Trump's Yemen strike killed 61 immigrants.
