TAIZ, YEMEN — Beyond the devastation it has caused on the back of tens of thousands of airstrikes, a crippling blockade and the intentional targeting of civilian infrastructure, the Saudi-led coalition supported by the United States has sparked an outbreak of disease and epidemics in Yemen in a manner not seen since World War II.
SANA’A, YEMEN — In Yemen’s Al Sabeen Hospital dozens of cholera patients lie motionless in their beds awaiting treatment for a disease eradicated in most of the world but making an aggressive resurgence in war-torn Yemen. Al Sabeen doctor Mohammed Abdul-Mughni, who had been working in a temporary diarrhea treatment center in the hospital, would usually be making the rounds at the hospital but he succumbed to cholera himself on March 28 after being infected while treating patients in the makeshift ward.

Mohammed Kamel — an engineer with the National Foundation which operated the Water Network — said in a statement to MintPress:

The boys’ plight and the efforts to rescue them have captured the world’s attention for several days, dominating news headlines throughout much of the world. Ultimately, most of the boys were rescued thanks in large part to an international collaboration as divers from several countries united to save them.
