Border guards in Saudi Arabia have fired machine guns and launched mortars at Ethiopians trying to cross into the kingdom from Yemen, likely killing hundreds of the unarmed migrants in recent years, Human Rights Watch said in a report released Monday. The rights group cited eyewitness reports of attacks by troops and images that showed dead bodies and burial sites on migrant routes, saying the death toll could even be “possibly thousands.”

I did see this news anywhere.. Islamic AlJazeera is Silent
Every state has the right to defend its borders against illegal intrusion
If the USA or any Western country was to use this approche, ( which btw see a far greater number of migrants at their borders) I guarantee you that it would’ve been a major topic. Saudi is notorious for its inhuman treatment of migrants, but they expect to be respected and accepted around the world.
What about the immigrants who try to cross to your countries?
Good
The Ethiopians are forced to do so by the Houthi militia- in return for food and safety. The HRW reported this 3 years ago, however, now the narrative has changed, I wonder what the reasons are?
It is known that the Houthi militia in Yemen is recruiting the Ethiopians to do the hard work for them weather to smuggle weapons, drugs, dig trenches, or physically fight for the Houthis in the Yemeni boarders.
Europe and america also do same fast…😂😂
The country migrants are trying to invade doesn't accept migrants game set match. Yet the migrants keep coming. The only way is by force somehow.
How come? I do think it is made up for sure. Despite the fact that it is Saudi Arabia's ultimate right to protect its borders, land and citizens.
Humans are no longer Humans it's a shame
Lies, never happened. The politicized and biased report issued by Human Rights Watch on Ethiopian migrants between the "Yemeni-Saudi" border lacks professionalism and credibility, and was built according to the accounts and allegations of the terrorist Houthi militia affiliated with Iran, with the aim of obscuring its crimes and violations against African migrants and refugees.

That's one way to solve the problem..
Saudi Arabia will fall.
God is watching.
So what is Saudi expected to do if people invade them ? We all know what is Europe’s condition for being “humane” and “liberal..” ..
We don’t go in another house and start dictating what they should do and don’t right .. ?
This habit of dictating what other countries should do in their homes should stop.. a country can do anything at their disposal to safeguard their interest.. Unless your citizen is at stake, people should stop talking about it..
Human rights watch !! First they will enter illegally and Saudi is supposed to keep quiet !!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
There is such a thing as a border.
As Saudi has now joined BRICS, I expect to see more such stories about Saudi, and probably other BRICS members as well, in Western media.
Anyways, you need to remember that the Saudi-Yemeni border is a warzone, so of course people would die. It's not as if the Saudis went to Ethiopia and committed a massacre there. These people crossed the border knowing that it was a warzone so they faced the consequences of their action. It's cruel, I know… but it is what it is.
Go to Europe, it's the airstrip of your wealth, especially France.
The situation in Saudi-Yemen borders have been under attacks from Houthis. We cannot ignore the fact that Houthis have done many crimes and blame them on Saudis
These are serious accusations and cannot be accepted. Saudi Arabia respect human lives and proved its willingness to promote peace in Yemen when it agrees to reestablish ties with Iran despite the unpleasant history.
It's always a hypocritical world causes troubles
Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 has every right to do this they have to protect their border 😂😂
Bravo Saudi border securit
Protect your boarders.
Taking it to the extreme
They should stay away from there
Lol dont judge Türkiye again. let them come
I hope ALLAH is watching this !
MBS should be brought before the international court in The Hague, for crimes of genocide and crimes against humanity. There is no evidence that the Saudi border guards have been punished. In that case, they were acting on orders. And this should be investigated by the court.
You lying no suadi arabian border guard would be there
As Saudi I have good idea : we will build airport exactly in our borders send anyone wanna immigration free to USA and westerners countries are you agree?😂
Fake news
Where is the universal outrage? Why wasn't there a United Nations Security Council emergency session convened?
Were is UNA

😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Probably comes with the blessings of America?
You're using a misleading footage, it's not related to the news you're reporting. Why?
