1. The level of callousness in which #Yemen's conflict is depicted is truly insulting to Yemenis. This article published by @thehill is poorly researched & amateurishly written w/out fact checking. It's full of misinformation & unquantifiable statements.

2. In reporting the number of civilians killed by the Saudis, authors manipulated the information and made an inaccurate citation from a UN study choosing to attribute the entire war casualty estimate of 337K to #Saudis, and not the 15K reported UN estimate.
3. The authors of this article have completely failed to fact-check the numbers and information presented. In fact, the same source they reference undermines their own claims & reveals the misinformation included in the article. Ignoring casualties committed by #Houthis is biased
7. Here it is. The promotion for their Cato index. It is hard to see why anyone would trust this given the authors' lack of accuracy and failure to fact-check basic information on #Yemen. Nothing of what I read in this report is reliable.
11. Authors conveniently overlook @POTUS Biden role in promoting the truce. Biden's commitment to ending Yemen's war proved complicated because the administration realized that even after pressuring the Saudis, who stopped their airstrikes this year, Houthis' threat increased.
13. Yemenis deserve to have their story presented fully and accurately so we can help them seek safety and stability. It is unacceptable to downplay or ignore important facts. The fake concerns expressed in the article are not helpful or constructive in any way.
14. Bottom line, I would not accept this level of writing from a fifth grader, let alone professionals. I strongly urge editors to hold their contributors to higher standards & to stop publishing articles from individuals who lack knowledge about Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and Iran.
