<p><strong>We have received no additional information on the reported attack on 1
September in Dhamar province, Yemen. We take very seriously allegations that detainees
and civilians were killed in the attack and therefore welcome the Saudi-led Coalition
(SLC) referral of the incident to the Joint Incident Assessment Team and await its
findings. The UK takes every opportunity to raise with Saudi ministers and senior
leadership within the SLC the importance of International Humanitarian Law compliance,
and of the need for speedy, thorough, independent investigation and reporting where
violations are alleged.</strong></p>
