Airstrikes in Al-Sharia Village, Yemen: Homes Destroyed and 35 Reported Killed

The rubble of citizens’ homes here in al- Shariah village, Bani Hashish District, bears witness to the brutality and aggression of the Saudi enemy against our oppressed Yemeni people.

Here, as we can see, are the ruins of two homes belonging to citizens, targeted yesterday, and over on this side, two more homes, targeted and completely destroyed.

And also on the right-hand side of this place, a home—two citizens’ homes that were completely targeted.

And in front of me, on this side, is a mosque targeted in yesterday’s airstrikes.

Allah— there is no god but Him— will surely gather you on the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt.

A Quranic verse from a Qur’an whose pages were torn and verses burned remained amid this rubble, as if it were a warning to the criminals for the enormity of their crimes.

This is the home of Mujahid Mujmal Aatif.

And this second one is the home of Yahya Saleh Mohammed Aatif.

And this is the home of Omar Aatif. And this is Mohammed Ahmed Aatif.

This one is beyond it. And this is the home of Issam Mujmal Aatif.

The side in al-Qarnah. And this is the home of Abdul Salam al-Aghbari, Abdul Hamid al-Aghbari.

And this is the mosque.

Here is the devastated village of al-Sharia, in Bani Hashish District, where homes lie destroyed and residences completely demolished by the might and arrogance of the Qarun of our age, who made citizens’ homes targets for his missiles and bombs in a genocidal crime that claimed 35 martyrs.

A crime that left nothing of the homes but rubble, and nothing of the families but names.

At the home of citizen Abdulsalam al-Aghrabi, his mother, Lutfiya Mohammed, and his brother Ali were martyred, as were his sisters, Amat al-Jabbar and Safiya, and his son Hamza, and his two young grandchildren, Mohammed and Latifa.

In the family of citizen Mohammed al-Aghrabi, the tragedy was even greater, and the loss even more painful.

His wife, Altaf Saleh, was martyred, as was his daughter Fatima, along with her four daughters: Bayan, Bunyan, Shumukh, and Zainab, and his son Ali’s daughters, al-Batool, Zainab, Ihtiram, and Ansar.

The children Atef and Khadija were also martyred, children of his son Rassam, as was his son Mohammed’s wife, Shams, along with her daughter Fatima, who was three months old, as well as the little girl Ru’ya Taher.

As for the family of citizen Yahya Saleh al-Aghrabi, His son Ali was martyred, along with three children of his other son, Muhammad, Ahmad, Radwan, and Hajar.

As for citizen Yunus al-Aghrabi’s family, his wife, Nuwar Ali, and his two children Musa and Isa, were martyred.

Citizen Issam al-Aghrabi’s family was not spared from this massacre, His wife, Nura, was martyred, along with his son Muhammad and his wife, Radiya, as were his children, Salih and Rahma.

Lives taken by the criminal, bloodthirsty Saudi enemy.

Women were killed, and children’s innocence was crushed beneath the flames of hatred, amid the ruins of the crime.

What sin had they committed, or what crime had they done?

Despite the enormity of the tragedy and the heinousness of the crime, the martyrs’ blood will forever bear witness to the brutality of the Saudi enemy, and a curse will pursue the oppressors and aggressors.
