How many more children have to die in Yemen?

More than a dozen civilians, most of them schoolchildren, have been killed in the latest round of airstrikes by Saudi warplanes.

Everyone was hysterical, crying and shouting in panic. The principal of Al Raei School in Yemen describes the aftermath of Saudi Arabian air raids. These are, after all, young children.

Officials say the bombs hit the school and nearby residential areas in the capital Sana’a. Medics say the latest round of airstrikes killed over a dozen civilians and wounded around a hundred others; the majority of them children. The principle adds 2-thousand-100 young students were packed in the school compound at the time of the attacks. That’s more than 2-thousand Yemeni children potentially traumatized for life.
