In addition, Saudi-led coalition also applied a harsh blockade which put civilian at risk of massive famines.
It's the unbalanced war between the richest Arabs country in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) against Yemen, one of the poorest country in the world for sure. In fact it doesn't call a war, but a slaughtering on civilians through the air raids.
Life in hell

US & UK involvement in the war

The Christmas celebration should remind us the importance of peace to the world, as the teaching of Jesus on peace and non-violence. Through this celebration, we should call to ending the violences of war, not only in Yemen, but also for Syria, Libya, every where. All of conflicting parties should find their resolution through dialogue on the table, rather than seeking a war victory above the ruined infrastructures and dead-bodies.
And that's what we wish for!
