New York, January 8 (RHC)-- Human Rights Watch is accusing the U.S.-backed, Saudi-led coalition forces of committing war crimes in Yemen after the forces dropped cluster bombs on residential neighborhoods of the capital Sanaa earlier this week.

The United States has reportedly sold internationally banned cluster bombs to Saudi Arabia, which are now being used in Yemen, as part of the series of billion-dollar arms deals between the United States and the Saudis in 2015.
