US-made bomb used in Yemen hospital strike
 

DUBAI: Amnesty International said on Monday a US-made bomb was used in an air strike on a hospital in Yemen, urging Washington and London to stop supplying the Saudi-led coalition with *******.

The August 15 attack hit a hospital supported by Doctors Without Borders (MSF) at Abs in the rebel-held **rthern province of Hajja and killed 19 people, including an MSF staffer.

The rights watchdog said a "US-made precision-guided Paveway-****** aerial bomb" was used, according to independent experts who assessed photographs of a bomb fin taken at the site.

"It is outrageous that states have continued to supply the Saudi Arabia-led coalition with *******, including guided and general purpose aerial bombs and combat aircraft," said Amnesty’s MENA Research and Advocacy chief Philip Luther.

"This attack highlights, yet again, the desperate need for a comprehensive embargo on all ******* that could be used by any of the warring parties in Yemen and for an international investigation to bring those responsible for unlawful attacks to justice," Luther added.
