UK government is facing legal action over its arms sales to Saudi Arabia

Our government is facing legal action over its arms sales to Saudi Arabia – and trying to amend what Philip Hammond once said | Voices | The Independent: 

The Foreign Office released a statement hours before Parliament rose for summer recess that “corrected” six awkward statements by its former foreign secretary.
The revisions removed Philip Hammond’s assurances that Britain was conducting investigations into alleged violations of international humanitarian law by Saudi Arabia in Yemen, as well as his claims that no evidence had been found in these investigations of war crimes or other international law violations. It will not have escaped those following the conflict in Yemen that our government is facing legal action over its arms sales to Saudi Arabia.
