Bernie Sanders thanked all senators who voted for his resolution and declared that Yemen fight is “far from over” after 85,000 children in Yemen are “starving to death” as a result of the war and “millions more people are facing inminent starvation”.
For the first time, the U.S. Senate just voted to advance a resolution withdrawing U.S. Armed Forces from an unauthorized and unconstitutional war.
Let us bring this catastrophic war in Yemen to an end, and help bring peace and humanitarian aid to this tortured country. pic.twitter.com/rbThxPXuEG
