US-Made Guided Bombs Used in Deadly Yemen Market Attack, Investigation Finds

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, field investigations conducted by relevant authorities in Yemen indicate that Saudi fighter jets utilized American-made guided bombs in attacks on Al-Wazi’iyah market in Taiz province.

At least 33 Yemeni civilians, including 13 children, were killed and dozens more were injured in three separate airstrikes.

The findings of these investigations show that an F-15 Saudi fighter jet departed from Khamis Mushait airbase on the morning of November 6th and carried out three attacks against the aforementioned market and a farm that had been converted into a shelter for civilians.

Abdullah Al-Junaid, Director General of the Criminal Investigations Department of Taiz province, emphasized that examination of the remnants of the explosions and shrapnel from these attacks points to the use of American laser-guided bombs of the GBU-12 type, equipped with a 500-pound Mark 82 warhead.
