What the petition asks
Saudi Arabia has carried out indiscriminate airstrikes in Yemen which have resulted in thousands of civilian deaths.
These have been allowed by the British government's licensing of £4.6bn of arms sales to the kingdom since the start of the Yemeni Civil War in 2015. Saudi Arabia's blockade of Yemen has also resulted in the worst humanitarian crisis in the world.
