area” were also damaged. Abdullah Ahmed Banyan, who attends the centre
told IB Times, “people with disabilities are being struck in their residence.
Around 1.30am, two missiles hit the live-in quarters of a home for the blind.
Can you imagine they are striking the blind? What is this criminality? Why?

airstrikes intensify against Houthi forces (with film) A home for the blind and the Chamber of Commerce in Sanaa are among
the sites that have been destroyed by the latest round of Saudi Arabia-led
airstrikes in Yemen. Abdullah Ahmed Banyan, a patient at the Noor Centre for the Blind,
said: "People with disabilities are being struck in their residence.
Around 1.30am, two missiles hit the live-in quarters of a home for the blind.
Can you imagine they are striking the blind? What is this criminality? Why?
Is it the blind that are fighting the war?" "The chamber of commerce was targeted last night by an air
strike. For what reason? This kind of air strike is not justified and we hope
that all sides refrain from targeting commercial and civilian sites and
civilians," said Abdel Hakim Naser, head of
legal at the Chamber of Commerce. A party hall for weddings in Sanaa was also destroyed in the bombings.

– Middle East Eye Yemen centre for blind 'hit in Saudi coalition air raid' A centre for blind
people in the Yemeni capital of Sanaa has been reportedly hit in an air raid
by the Saudi-led coalition. According to local
reports, the Noor Centre for the Blind in the Safiah
district of Sanaa was struck on Tuesday morning,
along with an empty wedding hall. The third floor of
the centre was hit at 1am on Tuesday morning. There have been no reports of
casualties. The centre was
funded by the Yemeni Social Fund Development, a project of the World Bank. Mohammed al-Daylami, the deputy manager of the centre told the Saba
news agency that “the targeting of the centre proves that the Saudi coalition
has no clue about the rules and ethics of war". "What did the
disabled children do to do deserve being hit by an air strike?" he asked. "Where
are the NGOs? Where is the UN?" Air strikes
overnight also struck the port city of Hodaida and
the southwestern city of Taiz. 5.1.2016 – RT Yemen center for blind hit by Saudi-led coalition
airstrike – locals The
third floor of the Noor Center for the Blind in the Safiah
district was damaged in the 1 a.m. incident, according to the Middle East
Eye. No casualties in the bombing were reported. Noor
Center is one-of-a-kind in Yemen, receiving funding from one of the World
Bank’s projects in the country. After
the airstrike, the center’s deputy manager, Mohammed Daylami,
blamed Saudi Arabia and its allies for “having no clue about the rules and ethics of war." "What did the disabled children
do to do deserve being hit by an air strike? Where are the NGOs? Where is the
UN?", Daylami told Saba
news agency. Saudi-led
airstrikes resumed in Yemen as a formal ceasefire agreed on 15 December
between the coalition and the Houthi rebels expired over the weekend. However,
the Saudi-Arabian coalition kept violating Yemeni air space even during the
formal ceasefire, Sanaa-based political analyst Hassan Al-Haifi
told RT. Air raids often hit civilians with weapons prohibited under the
rules of engagement, he added. “They are continuing [to bomb].
They have never stopped,” Haifi said. “There are literally hundreds of air raids not just in Sanaa but
around the country.” “They are using every kind of
weapon available to them. The military targets are far fewer than civilian targets,”Haifi
told RT, adding that the Saudis have recently bombed a Coca-Cola factory and
a dairy farm, in addition to numerous schools and hospitals. https://www.rt.com/news/328024-yemen-saudi-airstrike-blind/
