Yemen’s Ministry of Human Rights on Wednesday strongly condemned the Saudi airstrikes on internally displaced persons (IDPs) camp in Mawza'a district of Taiz province, in a statement obtained by the state-news agency Saba.
The airstrikes on Tuesday killed 20 IDPs, mostly children and women, and injured several others.
The ministry called on the United Nations and the Security Council to quickly stop the Saudi aggression against Yemen and the Yemeni people.
Saudi Arabia has been engaged in a deadly campaign against Yemen since March 2015 in an attempt to reinstall the former Yemeni government.
The offensive has claimed 12,000 lives and left 19,343 others wounded, according to figures compiled by the Legal Center for Rights and Development, a Yemeni non-governmental monitoring group.
