The spokesman said that the Riyadh military resorts to the massacre of defenseless civilians whenever it suffers defeat in its aggression.
“During over a thousand days since the outset of this devastating war, Saudi Arabia has shown that whenever it faces failure and defeat in battlefields and operation zones, it retaliates by bombarding the defenseless people and killing innocent women and children,” the spokesman said.
Qassemi further criticized the so-called advocates of human rights for their inaction in the face of such “crazy” attacks, which are conducted by lethal American weapons.
