Yemeni civilian deaths double in Hajjah and Taiz provinces, 350 killed - Norwegian Refugee Council
Yemeni mourners sit by coffins at a mosque during a funeral in the Houthi-rebel-held capital Sanaa, for civilians killed in strikes in the northern Hajjah province. March 14, 2019.
The Norwegian Refugee Council said on Monday that civilian deaths have doubled in Hajjah and Taiz provinces, even as casualties in the flashpoint city of Hudaida were down since a shaky ceasefire came into effect there in December. "The reduction in violence seen in Hudaida through recent months has been counteracted by escalations in other parts of the country," said Abdi.
The NRC's analysis found that while civilian casualties from air strikes were down by half since December, attacks from roadside bombs, mines and snipers were on the rise.
