A Yemeni court has sentenced the President of the
United States, Donald Trump,
to death for alleged war crimes.
He was sentenced with nine other defendants which
included Saudi King Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud, and crown prince Mohammed Bin
Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud.
The case against the ten defendants was held in their
absence at Houthi-run Specialised Criminal Court in the Yemeni governorate of
Saada over the Saudi-led coalition’s attack on a bus full of young boys in
Dahyan in the Majz district
The Houthi-owned Yemen News
Agency (SABA) confirmed that the court issued death sentences to Donald Trump,
Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud, Mohammed Bin Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud, and
Norton Schwartz for their alleged roles in the attack.
Commander of the Saudi Air Force, Turki bin Bandar
bin Abdulaziz, Yemeni President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi, Yemen’s Vice President
Ali Mohsen Saleh Al-Ahmar, Prime Minister Ahmed bin Dagher, Defence Minister
Muhammad Al-Maqdishi, and former US Defence Secretary James Norman Mattis were
also sentenced to death.
The news agency indicated that the defendants are
also required to pay a $10 billion fine to families of those killed in the 2019
airstrike.
The charges related to an airstrike which reportedly
hit a school bus, killing 51 people including 40 children.
