Amnesty International: U.S. Bomb Used in Attack on Yemen Hospital
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Amnesty International says a U.S.-made bomb was used in an attack on a
Doctors Without Borders hospital in Yemen last month. The August 15
airstrikes by a Saudi-led coalition killed 11 and injured 19 others.
Amnesty International today distributed photos it says show a U.S.-made
precision-guided Paveway-series aerial bomb. The U.N. says at least
10,000 civilians have died or been wounded in the 18-month conflict. The
U.S. continues to supply Saudi Arabia with weapons, including banned
cluster bombs.
