UK urged to suspend arms sales to Saudi Arabia over Yemen warA letter from opposition party leaders says 'time is running out' and Yemen 'stands on the brink of catastrophe'. Saudi regime has decimated Yemen and has committed war crimes. Still selling them weapons is being complicit. It’s a disgrace.

Who is urging Iran to suspend arms sales to Yemen ?

House committee demands details of Jared Kushner's Saudi Arabia trip – liveLawmakers say briefing should include details on Trump adviser’s meetings with Saudi officials, including Mohammed bin Salman We all know this is all about our protecting Israel and the Saudi monarchy protecting themselves from their own people.
