country to make this mistake. yemen. after nearly four years of relentless conflict the world has grown used to images of killing and destruction. there is a danger the trolling news coverage can make viewers desensitized to prolonged conflict especially to the human suffering. but sometimes a single event can make the world sit up and take notice. a bombing on thursday the ninth of august twenty eighth team in the northern yemeni city of sadat knew the border with saudi arabia was one such events the argument about the when the economy appears on the rather than the how and why they let it when they got about how did you know what a here's how when i die. and you can get he

didn't even know if i'm seeing that and i have lived the size of the ideas to love and i want the title of last lesson in the early bite. of that on supply dog the somehow that it was that i had been sending. this through looks at what's happened that day and how planes deployed by the saudi u.a.e. coalition managed to bomb a bus full of yemeni schoolchildren in saada killing nearly everyone on boards.

yemen is one of the poorest countries in the world. in twenty eleven a revolution parts of the so-called arab spring ousted president ali abdullah saleh . the armed sheogue group in the north of yemen who these took advantage of the instability they moved south and ultimately captured the capital sanaa seizing power from the governments of the new president up the rebel who are going through what had to. decide who to take over prompted a group of arab states led by saudi arabia and including the united arab emirates to launch an all out of top positions in march twenty fifteen saying that the who things were supported by iran and.

the united nations estimates that since then around six thousand six hundred yemenis to billions have been killed ten thousand five hundred injured and the largest humanitarian crisis in the world including famine and widespread disease has been allowed to develop. it's in this context that the bombing in saw a known who the stronghold took place. an international news story circulated saying that coalition forces had hit a bus carrying children on a summer school excursion. this little boy covered in soot and surrounded by the dead just minutes after the strike was asked if you was ok. my legs he said. the western backed saudi led coalition responsible offering no apology dozens of children killed in a saudi led coalition air strike that hit a school bus the instant caused outrage was condemned around the world. so to

forces bombed school bus. managed to shock a lot of people this is a school bus this is not a military target of course what happened was dozens of children were. fifty one people including forty children were killed and seventy seven others injured in the thought that attack. the international red cross said their medical team at the hospital received the bodies of twenty nine children each under fifteen . the hospital also treated forty eight injured patients of whom thirteen were children. hell it was a theory sort of film that you've had to go to for him are you to tell i said. yes

i was. the how that will show her. being. off of a bottle at night yet. you are. a lot but. yes big hustlers getting about how the most. well you know. plan. let me give you that i. have a. well as i leave you know it's a lot of other things i want to. read that. and i will say that if you. have an alley i do. something when i get anywhere i have to go. has been allowing a little. but

the basic explanation about why these tragedies have happened is because often in war your intelligence is not very good and if you have someone who is trying to win a war fast who has a sense of impatience and recklessness they will take shots even when they should not and i believe that sometimes what the saudis have been doing. the initial saudi reaction was to deny responsibility for the bomb hitting the school bus. coalition spokesman maliki told c.n.n. that the talk had been on what he called and it is a myth targets and that this was not a school bus and maliki went on to see that the targets had been a few rocket launch sites that had been used the day before to attack the southern style the city of just killing one civilian and injuring eleven others. just follow

the money why stay down be the i don't i study english lord you know yes and i said why yes but if we are not only did you waste time. when the bombing initially invaded what we do every time the terrible bombardment same thing as we said from the bombed away things same thing as they said we bombed a few same thing as we said from people in the market place they always say that. and actually recast i always say that really quite unlike. can a bug out bag that they got and i got i was a lot of guidance that was so out of a bad had bag of oil meant that other what other high. profile that it had a bad ha ha about being a stellar benefit. at hell at that i want to tell the bike that what happened in.

this mobile phone survived the attack but it's only took notes. there were video clips on the phone of the children on the bus before the bombing and. once these were made public it became difficult for the coalition to stick to its original story. the next day they announced that the bus bombing was natural damage resulting from another strike against a so-called legitimate targets and now the deal judy is an iraqi academic who sympathizes with the coalition in this conflict on one of these two was in a jar people that are more length of knowledge to have. i don't see it i don't know oh my god it's a slight fear by them to have thought about what they are and how it feels how the strategy of all who feel a little bit in a home of them in the rubbish area but the color nautical mile and i walk into the

nearest walk i'm. doris you know head of my home you don't want to eat a. one hundred oh democrats over him if you have had a so for so on and what was going on there or not the how to lobby you have to made in. the united states has provided to coolish and with military support since twenty fifteen yes. the blowing up of a bus with civilians and children it is a horrible incident but first we have to find out the facts. then the united states has to make some choices if in fact our saudi allies were not involved in this we will continue this type of support for some time. we've made it clear at the u.n. from the secretary general's perspective and the perspective of the high commissioner for human rights our outrage at the targeting of minibuses and we've

called for there to be. authority best occasioned this attack obviously these various attacks obviously all international humanitarian law of must be respected and we need to make sure that there is a proper test a geisha and we'll have to see whether that happens or not. the thought the bus bombing triggered international condemnation. the commander of u.s. air forces central command lieutenant general geoffrey harrigan severely criticised both the coalition and the saudi authorities. the u.s. army central commander in the middle east michael x. garrets went to riyadh's to urge the saudis to conduct a thorough investigation. donald trump told fox news that the saudi led coalition in yemen didn't know how to use an american made bomb in the attack.

and the un security council called for a credible and transparent investigation into the incident.
