Stephen O'Brien, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, said he was "horrified and extremely disturbed" by the attack and called for a prompt and "impartial" probe. "This horrendous and heinous attack displayed an utter disregard for human life," O'Brien said. "I call on all parties to protect civilians and stop using explosive weapons or conducting aerial bombardments in civilian-populated places in Yemen. Surely enough is enough," he added.
Re: innocent humans in yemen matter too,not just syrians/palestinians
Civilians in all the conflicts are innocent - just same what their religion or ethnicity is. Unfortunately crisis and conflicts seem to happen in every corners of the world and the public audience who follows the world happenings can´t be aware about every of them all the time. Thanks for reminding us.
Re: innocent humans in yemen matter too,not just syrians/palestinians
It goes without saying that the loss of all life is a terrible thing and that all people's lives matter, not sure why you've phrased the title in such a way.
Someone said to the Prophet, "Pray to God against the idolaters and curse them." The Prophet replied, "I have been sent to show mercy and have not been sent to curse." (Muslim)
Re: innocent humans in yemen matter too,not just syrians/palestinians
It's not just Palestine, Syria or Yemen but also non-Arab muslims (the bulk of muslims on this planet). It always saddens that so many muslims, especially in the west, turn away from the massacres of Kashmir, Burma and so on.
I'm not saying we shouldn't talk about Palestine or Syria but remember ,if we are to talk about those issue then we must mention all muslim issues.

That´s very important to remember. Every life matters. Just right now we should remember it, when tensions are raising among the sunnis. At the same time we ask why shias don´t respect value of life of sunnis in Syria while butchering of civilians in Yemen has continued a long time without end.

The same goes for Kashmiris, the people of Assam, Burma, Chechyna and so on.

to provoke thought
