The leadership of the Houthi militia was confused and worried, in conjunction with the second anniversary of the December 2, 2017 uprising launched by the late President Ali Abdullah Saleh from Sana'a.
Last week, Houthi militias prevented the leaders of the Popular Congress in Sanaa from holding any events or meetings, and imposed security controls on their daily movements.
In addition, the Houthi militia has imposed an almost undeclared emergency, especially in Sanaa, where the group has been witnessing an unprecedented proliferation of gunmen and combat equipment throughout the city.
However, the militia raised the level of security alert on Sunday, December 1, 2019, on the eve of the second anniversary of the uprising, amid threats by the Houthis through social media platforms and media, if any action.
Late on Sunday, the Interior Ministry of the Houthis in Sanaa claimed to foil what it called "a plan belonging to the aggression states that included penetrating the various state institutions to sow discord between their functional levels and take illegal and provocative decisions on the street."
They claimed that "two key cells that were under the direct responsibility of Saudi intelligence officers were seized and controlled in the early stages," a pre-emptive propaganda to scare the population away from any peaceful anti-Iranian move in Sana'a, as well as to justify their brutal suppression.
