UNICEF Condemns Yemen School Blast, 14 Children Killed

A devastating blast at a school in Yemen has killed at least 14 children and injured many more, according to reports. The explosion occurred at a school in the city of Saada, which is controlled by Houthi rebels.

The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) has strongly condemned the attack, calling it a "heinous act" that has caused immense suffering to the children and their families.

"This is a heinous act that has caused immense suffering to the children and their families," said UNICEF's Representative in Yemen, Meritxell Mateu. "Children should be safe in school, not targeted in attacks that have no justification."

The blast is believed to have been caused by a rocket or mortar shell, and it is not clear who was responsible for the attack. The Houthis have been accused of using schools as military targets in the past, while the Saudi-led coalition has also been criticized for its airstrikes on civilian targets.

This is just the latest in a series of attacks on schools and hospitals in Yemen, which has been embroiled in a devastating conflict for years. The war has caused widespread destruction, displacement, and humanitarian suffering, and has had a devastating impact on the country's children.

UNICEF is working to provide emergency assistance to the affected children and families, including medical care, food, and shelter. The organization is also calling for an immediate end to the violence and for all parties to respect the principles of international humanitarian law.
