US-Saudi weapons cause deformities defects among Yemeni children.

[19/December/2021]
During the past six years of the aggression, the air, water, and food were polluted by weapons, germ bombs, toxic gases, and other prohibited weapons that the US-Saudi warplanes dropped

on #Yemen.

The Yemen witness at the present time a very dangerous situation of the birth of congenitally deformed children, and the terrifying spread of cancers of various kinds among children, mostly leukemia, amid a tragedy of the lack of chemotherapy for the treatment of

these diseases.
 They caused the spread of epidemic diseases, fetal deaths and congenital malformations for newborns, constituting the worst epidemiological disaster threatening the fetuses.
The Secretary-General of the Yemeni Pediatric Society at the September 21 University

of Medical and Applied Sciences, Dr. Noura Nour Al-Din, said: "#Yemen has become like a field of experiments for using the prohibited weapons that have caused cases of fetal death and congenital malformations among newborns."
"What is more painful is that Yemeni families are

unable to treat their children because of the low economic situation, in addition to their being killed by air raids and with various weapons while in their homes," she added.

The al-Sabeen Maternity and Child Hospital in the capital, Sana’a, has seen an increase in babies being born prematurely and with deformities, which doctors say is a result of the war and the Saudi-led coalition’s bombs.
These cases of deformities have drastically increased

over the past years, due to the assault on #Yemen, the rockets and the cluster bombs,” Doctor Abdulkarim al-Najjar said Wednesday.

Doctors and medical experts in Yemen believe that Saudi Arabia and its coalition forces are using biological weapons which

are believed to be the reason for the increased cancer and birth defect cases in #Yemen. Yousef Mawry has the special story.

Sana is dying. She was born just a few days ago, but because of a rare birth malformation, doctors believe she only has a few days to live.

Sana is one of the thousands of Yemeni babies facing similar fate. Here is the Sabeen Hospital in the Yemeni capital Sana’a; and doctors say they have been receiving birth defect cases at an alarming rate since 2015. That's when the Saudi-led coalition launched its war on
1/4

#Yemen
Doctors here are convinced that biological weapons were employed by the Saudis.

Cancer cases are also on the rise. The spokesperson for Yemen’s Ministry of Health says the data and statistics recorded since the war started indicate that biological weapons used
1/5

by the #Saudi-led coalition are the main cause of the steady increase in cancer and birth defects.

We visited the registration office at Yemen’s only oncology center. It was packed with people pushing their way to register for cancer treatment.

According to Yemen’s Ministry of Health, the number of cancer patients increased by more than 50% since the war was launched in 2015.

The Yemeni Ministry of Health says it will form a committee to officially investigate the main cause for the increase in birth defects and
1/7

cancer cases in the areas that have been hit the most by Saudi airstrikes. Even if it’s evident that prohibited weapons were utilized by Saudi Arabia and its coalition forces, it is unlikely they will face prosecution since most of the weapons used in the war are supplied

by the American and British governments.

Doctors and medical
experts say the increase in cancer and birth defect cases is rooted in the eight-year Saudi-led war that has polluted #Yemen’s air, water and food. They blame the

Saudi-led coalition’s use of prohibited weapons such as biological weapons, cluster bombs and toxic gases.
