One Martyr, Nine Injured in Saudi Strikes on Gas Station and Oil Company in Sana’a

In a new criminal escalation targeting civilian and service facilities in the capital Sana’a, one citizen was martyred and approximately nine others were injured on Tuesday as a result of two separate attacks that hit the Al-Mafzar gas station and the Oil Company in the capital municipality. The attacks also caused material damage to homes and property surrounding the two targeting sites.

Dr. Anis Al-Asbahi, spokesman for the Ministry of Health and Environment, confirmed the martyrdom of one citizen and the injury of three others due to the Saudi enemy targeting the Al-Mafzar gas station in the Jadr area of Bani Al-Harith district, north of the capital municipality. He noted that ambulance teams and relevant authorities dealt with the repercussions of the incident and transferred the injured to receive necessary medical care.

Six Injured at Oil Company

In another attack, Al-Asbahi reported that six citizens were injured due to a criminal Saudi targeting of the Oil Company in the Al-Sitteen Al-Janoubi area of Al-Wahdah district, in the center of the capital municipality. He confirmed damage to a number of homes and residential properties as a result of the attack.

The Saudi airstrikes on the gas station and Oil Company building in Sana’a represent a continuation of the Saudi-led coalition’s systematic targeting of civilian infrastructure and service facilities in Yemen.

The targeting of a gas station and an oil company building, which are essential for providing fuel and gas to the civilian population, constitutes a grave violation of international humanitarian law, which prohibits targeting civilian objects.

The martyrdom of one citizen and the injury of nine others, along with damage to surrounding homes and property, underscores the indiscriminate nature of the Saudi airstrikes and their devastating impact on civilian neighborhoods.
