Hawzah News Agency - In a report released on Thursday, Yemen’s Legal Center for Rights and Development, an independent monitoring group, put the civilian death toll in war-torn Arab country at 12,041.

The fatalities, it said, comprise 2,568 children and 1,870 women.

The rights body said the bombings have also wounded 20,001 civilians, including 2,354 children and 1,960 women, while more than four million others have been displaced.

Recounting the damage to Yemen’s already-flimsy infrastructure, the center said Saudi strikes had razed 270 medical centers, 25 media institutes, more than 402,076 houses and 706 mosques.

Armed with American and British ammunition and European warplanes, among other Western-supported military hardware, the kingdom launched the campaign against Yemen in March 2015.

The offensive is aimed at reinstalling the former Yemeni government, a close Riyadh ally.
