<p>As at 21 January 2019, the number of alleged instances of breaches or violations
of International Humanitarian Law (IHL) in Yemen listed on the "Tracker"
database maintained by the Ministry of Defence (MOD) is 409. Of these, 15 are duplicate
entries, which means that some incidents will have been recorded on more than one
occasion likely because of the incomplete nature of Non-Governmental Organisation
and media reporting upon which the MOD relies to update the "Tracker".</p><p>The
MOD does not assess allegations of IHL violations. The Saudi-led Coalition is best
placed to do this and does so through its Joint Incident Assessment Team.</p>
