Liberal Democrats in the UK have denounced London’s complicity in Saudi Arabia’s devastating war on Yemen calling it shameful.

A recent report shows that the Saudi Air Force is being trained by the British Government in both Saudi Arabia and the UK itself. The liberal political party has urged the government to immediately stop the training and restrict arms sales to the oil-rich kingdom. A spokesman for the party has condemned the indiscriminate bombing of innocent civilians by Saudi Arabia in Yemen, as blatant violation of international humanitarian law. Britain’s defense Secretary Michael Fallon has admitted helping the Royal Saudi Air Force but added that it was meant to improve their targeting process. Saudi Arabia came under mounting pressure for its recent airstrikes which killed at least 140 people and injured up to 600 more at a funeral in the Yemeni city of Sana’a.
