The Saudi-led bombing campaign against Yemen and the UKs involvement

Theresa May has reportedly raised concerns over the situation in Yemen as Saudi Arabia continues its bombing campaign targeting Houthi rebels. But Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International have documented more than 70 unlawful strikes, thousands of civilians have been killed and 80% of Yemen are in need of aid. The United Kingdom is the second biggest arms dealer in the world and has licensed £3.3 billion worth of arms to Saudi Arabia since the bombing began.With this evidence emerging there are increasing calls for Britain to stop selling arms to Saudi Arabia.
