Yemen War смотреть последние обновления за сегодня на .
Yemen has been facing its worst humanitarian crisis in decades. Thousands of people have been killed and millions have been displaced after Saudi Arabia launched a military offensive in 2015. The poorest country in the Arab world has become a playground for regional and international powers. Saudi Arabia considers Houthi rebels, who control vast swathes of the country, an Iranian ally and a direct threat to their security. Three years into the war, the country has been devastated and civilians are bearing the brunt of the war. About 17 million Yemenis will face famine if humanitarian aid does not reach them soon.

It's sometimes called a forgotten war: fighting in Yemen has killed hundreds of thousands of people. Hunger has claimed even more lives, while 4.5 million Yemenis are internally displaced. Yet the complex conflict between Saudi-led forces and Houthi rebels doesn't always make headlines. This September, nine years after the Houthis attacked the capital Sanaa, triggering Saudi Arabia's intervention, the country is not in the grips of all-out war, but it's still not at peace either. In this special edition, we bring you reports from our team on the ground and speak to Asher Orkaby, the author of "Yemen: What everyone needs to know".

Yemen's long running conflict is grinding on and children remain in the firing line. Government-aligned forces, backed by a Saudi-led military coalition, have been fighting the Iran-aligned Houthi rebels who control Sanaa and much of the west of the country. The conflict has taken a heavy toll on the population, especially women and children. 11,300 children have been killed or maimed in nine years of war in the Arab world's poorest country, the UN said. The civil war has created a major humanitarian crisis. Please subscribe here: 🤍 #Yemen #BBCNews

“Become smarter in 5 minutes by signing up for free today: 🤍 - Thanks to Morning Brew for sponsoring today’s video.” Situated in the southwestern corner of the Arabian Peninsula, Yemen is sometimes referred to as the ‘Wild West of the Arab World.’ Mountains, tribes, drugs, a sectarian divide and foreign meddling have come together into the toxic cocktail of civil war. Houthi rebels, armed with an impressive arsenal of rockets and with Iranian backing face off against the Yemeni army propped up by a Saudi-led coalition who are in turn supported by several Western powers. At the same time, an armed group fights for the secession of Southern Yemen while Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula further muddies the water, fighting against all other factions present. Humanitarian organisations are warning that Yemen is facing the ‘world’s worst humanitarian crisis.’ So how did it come to this? This is History of Today: The Yemeni Civil War.

Subscribe to France 24 now: 🤍 FRANCE 24 live news stream: all the latest news 24/7 🤍 Yemen's 4 year long war has never been a simple 2 sided conflict...but rather a messy patchwork of stakeholders locked in regional and international power struggles - often based on historical, religious and geographical divisions. SAUDI COALITION + GOVTIn March 2015 when President Hadi was forced to flee the country, Saudi Arabia scrambled to form a mainly Sunni Arab coalition to salvage his government - an alliance which received support from France, the UK and the US.Today, the coalition controls large swathes of the country;SOUTHERN SEPERATISTSBut a major crack in that coalition has now emerged. The already troubled alliance forged between UAE backed seperatists in the south and forces loyal to President Hadi has been shaken by recent fighting in the government bastion of Aden.In 2018, the 26 member secessioniest organisation - the Southern Transitional Council - had already accused the government of corruption and called for the removal of the Prime Minister. HOUTHISThe Saudi backed government's main foe however remains the Iran-backed Houthi rebels - who belong to a small branch of Shia Muslims known as Zay- dis. They were once loyal to former President Saleh - until he broke ties with the rebels in a move orchestrated by the UAE in 2017Along with their allies, they have a firm grip today over central and northern regions, including the capital Sanaa - but have faced a challenge from government forces for control of the strategic Red Sea port of Hodeidah JIHADISTS The war has also been a petri dish which has allowed jihadist groups to flourishAl Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula has a strong presence...while the Yemeni branch of the Islamic State Group has training camps in the south and has attacked several Houthi targets. The 2 groups have also regularly come to blows in the past. PEACE The violence which has raged between these various factions has complicated UN efforts to end the war, which has left tens of thousands dead, and 80 percent of the population in need of humanitarian assistance.

After seven years of war, there is no end in sight to the suffering in Yemen. In this exclusive film, we report on the situation in the north-west of Yemen, held by the Houthis. 21 million people live in this enclave. There, since 2015, out of sight, a dirty war has been going on. Sana’a, North of Yemen. One of the most inaccessible places on the planet. For the past six years, Ansar Allah, a political and military movement created by powerful families from the North, has seized control. But Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are determined to reinstall the ousted Yemeni president. They see the Houthi rebels, who belong to the Zaydist branch of Islam, as heretics who pose a threat to Wahhabism. Using weapons provided by the West, they relentlessly bombard the North in a dirty war. Over 230,000 Yemenis have already died. A strict, expertly maintained embargo is also starving the population. According to UN agencies, Yemen is facing one of the worst famines in the world with 400,000 children reportedly at risk of death. New diseases have appeared since the beginning of the war and there has been a sharp increase in babies born with abnormalities. But the war in Yemen is about more than just competing religious ideologies. Yemen owns substantial and underexploited oil reserves and controls roads leading to the Suez canal.

Yemen's Houthi rebels on Sunday broadcast footage they said was of a major attack into Saudi Arabia that killed or wounded 500 soldiers with thousands of others surrendering. Yahya Saree, a Houthi military spokesman, described an ambush on the Saudi forces that then developed into an "all-out" cross-border offensive that trapped the troops inside Saudi Arabia. "More than 200 were killed in dozens of [missile and drone] strikes while trying to escape or surrender," Saree said. The fighting took place in the southern region of Najran with video images aired showing armoured vehicles hit by blasts and surrendering soldiers.

(16 Dec 2021) LEAD IN: Fighting continues near Marib in war-torn Yemen, which has been convulsed by civil war since 2014. The battle for Marib likely will determine the outline of any political settlement in Yemen's second civil war since the 1990s. STORY-LINE: Fighting continued on Wednesday near the Yemeni city of Marib between Houthi rebels and forces loyal to Yemen's internationally recognised government. In recent weeks, hundreds of fighters were killed in clashes between Yemen's government forces and Houthi rebels in and around the strategic central province of Marib. Most of the casualties belonged to the Houthi forces, who have recently wrestled from their rivals most of Marib's 14 districts, according to officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to brief the media. The Houthis have for years attempted to take oil-rich Marib to complete their control over the northern half of Yemen. The Iran-backed Shiite Houthis have stepped up their push in the province in recent weeks, while also escalating cross-border attacks on Saudi Arabia. The kingdom is leading a military coalition that has been fighting on the government side against the Houthis. Yemen has been convulsed by civil war since 2014 when the Houthis captured the capital, Sanaa, and much of the north of the country, forcing the internationally recognised government to flee to the south, then to Saudi Arabia. The Saudi-led coalition entered the war in March 2015, backed by the United States, to try and restore the government to power. Despite a relentless air campaign and ground fighting, the war has deteriorated largely into a stalemate and spawned the world's worst humanitarian crisis.

(London, August 21, 2023) – Saudi border guards have killed at least hundreds of Ethiopian migrants and asylum seekers who tried to cross the Yemen-Saudi border between March 2022 and June 2023, Human Rights Watch said in a report released today. If committed as part of a Saudi government policy to murder migrants, these killings, which appear to continue, would be a crime against humanity. The 73-page report, “‘They Fired on Us Like Rain’: Saudi Arabian Mass Killings of Ethiopian Migrants at the Yemen-Saudi Border,” found that Saudi border guards have used explosive weapons to kill many migrants and shot other migrants at close range, including many women and children, in a widespread and systematic pattern of attacks. In some instances, Saudi border guards asked migrants what limb to shoot, and then shot them at close range. Saudi border guards also fired explosive weapons at migrants who were attempting to flee back to Yemen. To support our work, please visit: 🤍 Human Rights Watch: 🤍 Subscribe for more: 🤍

Ripple effects of the Saudi-Iran rapprochement relieve some of the tensions of the ongoing war in Yemen. The civil war in Yemen broke out in late 2014 when Iran-backed Houthi rebels seized the capital Sanaa and took over the government. The war escalated in 2015 when a Saudi-led coalition of nine countries, including Egypt, Jordan, Sudan and the United Arab Emirates intervened in an effort to restore the former government, which is internationally recognized. The conflict in Yemen has since been seen as a proxy war between Sunni Saudi Arabia and Shiite Iran.

The war in Yemen is a conflict that has been going on for more than 7 years. Officially it is a civil war between the government forces of Mansur Hadi and the Shia "rebels" Houthi, but in reality it is a proxy war between Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, the United States and Iran for control of the Arabian Peninsula and the strategic Bab El Mandeb Strait. Unfortunately, the UN has described the war as one of the worst humanitarian catastrophes currently underway. In this documentary video we delve into the history of Yemen, the origin of the war, how it broke out, and the interests at stake.

(19 Dec 2018) STORYLINE: THE HOUTHI REBELS WHO PLUCKED SADEK FROM HIS HOME PROMISED THAT HE WOULD BE RUNNING SUPPLIES TO THE ADULTS, NOT FIGHTING. BUT IT WASN'T LONG BEFORE THE 13-YEAR-OLD FOUND HIMSELF ON THE FRONT LINES OF YEMEN'S CIVIL WAR. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Sadek, Former Child Soldier: "I came down by the stream. Just then, the planes hit our location. There were children there, children I used to know. And I felt afraid." A HOUTHI OFFICIAL TOLD THE ASSOCIATED PRESS THAT AS MANY AS 18,000 CHILDREN HAVE SERVED AS FIGHTERS, PRISON GUARDS, AND FRONT-LINE COURIERS SINCE THE SHIITE REBELS SEIZED NORTHERN YEMEN IN 2014. HUNDREDS ARE BELIEVED TO HAVE BEEN KILLED. THE MAIN PARTIES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE CONFLICT HAVE VIOLATED INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS CONVENTIONS BY USING CHILD SOLDIERS. BUT THE HOUTHI REBELS ARE BELIEVED TO HAVE RECRUITED MANY MORE THAN GROUPS BACKED BY THE SAUDI-LED COALITION. SOME CHILDREN JOIN WILLINGLY FOR MONEY, REVENGE OR JUST THE THRILL OF FIRING A MACHINE GUN. BUT MANY OF THESE CHILD SOLDIERS ARE UNWILLING CONSCRIPTS. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Kahlan, Former Child Soldier: "A pickup truck came to the school and they told us to go with them. `To where?' we asked. They said, `Come with us. We will give you bags and things.'" HOUTHI OFFICIALS WHOSE TROOPS CONTROL TERRITORY CONTAINING 70 PERCENT OF YEMEN'S POPULATION REFUSE TO DISCUSS THE ISSUE OF CHILD SOLDIERS. BUT THEY CONSIDER THE WAR AN ACT OF NATIONAL DEFENSE AGAINST WHAT THEY CALL SAUDI AGGRESSION. BOYS LIKE 12-YEAR-OLD KAHLAN ARE TOO YOUNG TO GRASP SUCH CONCEPTS. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Kahlan, Former Child Soldier: "Eventually, we reached Sanaa, where they took us to a school and enrolled us. Then we were taken to the front lines and given weapons." NAGUIB AL-SAADI SAYS THE HOUTHIS ARE PLANTING THE SEEDS FOR PERPETUAL WAR – BREEDING A GENERATION THAT REJECTS THE OTHER. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Naguib al-Saadi, Founded Rehabilitation Center for Child Soldiers: "A generation that is ready to die for worthless causes and convinced that almighty God approves of this kind of talk." IN HOPES OF BREAKING THAT CYCLE, AL-SAADI FOUNDED THIS REHABILITATION CENTER FOR CHILD SOLDIERS IN COALITION-CONTROLLED TERRITORY. THE BOYS PLAY GAMES AND DRAW, IN AN ATTEMPT TO GIVE THEM BACK SOME OF THEIR LOST CHILDHOOD. THE CHILDREN ARE HYPER-AGGRESSIVE AND HAVE TO RELEARN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RIGHT AND WRONG. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Mahyoub al-Mikhlafi, Psychologist: "(A boy) will come to me and tell me that to kill is the easiest thing for him. He has reached this point." WHEN THE SMOKE FROM THE COALITION AIRSTRIKE CLEARED, SADEK SAYS THE GROUND WAS LITTERED WITH THE BROKEN BODIES OF HIS FORMER PLAYMATES. SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Sadek, Former Child Soldier: "They were in pieces. One was beheaded. Others had lost their hands." SADEK WATCHED AS THE REMAINS WERE PLACED INTO SACKS AND CARRIED AWAY.

Correction: The original version of this piece misidentified the defense minister for Yemen, Lt. Gen Mohammed Ali Al-Maqdashi. The piece has been updated to reflect his correct name and title. The NewsHour regrets the error. Three months ago, President Biden ended American military involvement in the war in Yemen and reversed President Trump's decision to designate the Houthis a terrorist organization. But soon after, as special correspondent Jane Ferguson reports, the Houthis launched an offensive east from the capital, Sana'a, towards the city of Marib, the last stronghold of Saudi-backed Yemeni government forces.

(8 Nov 2021) LEAD IN: Fighting continued on Sunday near Marib in Yemen, a country which has been embroiled in a civil war since 2014. Yemen's conflict has killed more than 130,000 people and spawned the world's worst humanitarian crisis. STORY-LINE: Fighting continued near the city of Marib in Yemen on Sunday between Iran-backed rebels and forces loyal to Yemen's internationally recognized government.
