National Commission of Inquiry inspects civilian wounded in Aden

Judge Ahmed Saeed Al-Miflihi, head of the National Commission of Inquiry into Allegations of Human Rights Violations, conducted a field visit to Aboud Hospital in Aden to assess the condition of civilian wounded and war detainees.

Accompanied by commission member Judge Jihad Abdulrasul, Al-Miflihi met with civilians injured by shelling and detainees arriving from conflict zones. The visit highlighted cases of child soldiers, including two children reportedly recruited and utilized in military operations by Houthi forces.

Since September, the hospital has received 37 injury cases, including women and children requiring intensive care and surgery. The commission reviewed testimonies regarding attacks on civilian families, such as a strike on a wedding celebration that killed a mother and injured children, and a ballistic missile strike that destroyed a home, injuring a five-year-old child. The team also evaluated the medical services, surgical interventions, and psychological support provided to those affected by the conflict.
