Since the end of the truce, the Houthi terrorist militia reveals its losses from fighters
Since the end of the UN ceasefire in Yemen, and the obstruction of its continuation, the Houthi terrorist militia has been targeting civilians, children and women and has continued to systematically shell populated villages in Ta’izz, Hodeidah, Dhale, Lahij, and Sana’a governorates, with the aim of inflicting maximum number of civilian casualties.
The gap between humanitarian and relief interventions and the growing needs of the country’s civilians is growing by the day, as the Houthi violation has killed tens of thousands, destroyed Yemen’s economy, and starved millions.
Houthi crimes
During the years of the coup, the crimes and human rights violations committed by the Houthi militias against civilians have become a daily occurrence in Yemen, with abductions, torture of prisoners, bombing of homes and the displacement of thousands of families being only part of the serious war crimes and human rights violations for which the Huthi militia is responsible.
The Houthis have also laid mines indiscriminately, without distinguishing between military or civilian positions, and mine explosions have occurred near homes, schools, mosques, markets, water sources, and elsewhere. So far, there have been 580 victims, including children and women, and 457 wounded.
In addition, crimes against women are particularly serious, amounting to murder, mutilation, detention, abduction and sexual violence.
Indeed, since 2014, the Houthis in Yemen have forcibly recruited 10,300 children, opened 52 training camps for thousands of teenagers, incited violence, and promoted the group’s ideology through special lectures to fill students with extremist discourse and engage them in military operations.
