Stop complicity in Yemen
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
The United Kingdom has been supplying arms such as bombs and fighter planes to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia which are used to bomb and pulverise the innocent people of Yemen. They have done nothing to help ease the blockade leaving 24 million Yemenis starving and dying without any aid.
Every 10 minutes a child under five years old dies in Yemen as a result of a completely preventable cause. The UK cannot be silent anymore. Stop arming Saudi and start helping the people of Yemen. Stop being complicit in their deaths.
