A 12-year-old girl was killed on Wednesday by a sniper of the Houthi militia in Ghorab district, west of Taiz Governorate.

The 12-year-old kid, Heleen, was gunned down while playing near her house by one of the Houthi militia’s snipers stationed at al- Modarghat hill, local sources told September Net.

The little girl died while doctors trying to save her life, according to a medical source.

Since their coup against the legitimate government in 2014, the Iran-backed Houthi militia have killed hundreds of civilians by sniper shooting alone, most of whom children and women.
