Saudi Arabia's errors have led to multiple victims among the civilian population of Yemen, Syria and Iraq, a spokesman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry said Thursday.

Saudi-Led Coalition Airstrike Kills 16 Civilians in Northern Yemen – Reports
MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The statement comes after Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir accused Tehran on Wednesday of destabilizing Arab countries and supplying arms to Yemen's Houthi rebels.

“Saudi authorities are bogged down in a bloody quagmire of terrorism and massacre of innocent women and children in Yemen, Syria and Iraq as a result of their egregious strategic errors”, Bahram Qassemi said as quoted by the Tasnim News Agency.

Since March 2015, the Saudi-led coalition of mostly Persian Gulf countries has been carrying out airstrikes, targeting Shia Houthi rebels at the Yemeni president’s request. Numerous human rights organizations have repeatedly criticized the coalition for the use of banned cluster munitions and strikes killing civilians.
