The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) says nearly 1,400 children have been killed in the ongoing deadly Saudi aggression against Yemen.

Meritxell Relano, UNICEF’s representative in Yemen, said on Wednesday that hundreds more had been injured and many schools closed since March 2015, when Saudi Arabia started this aggression.

The plea follows an airstrike by US-Saudi warplanes near a school in northern Yemen on Tuesday,Medics said the attack killed at least 8 civilians, including two children.

This US-Saudi war has so far killed over 11,400 people, according to the latest tally by a Yemeni monitoring group.
