Sana'a, NewsYemen, private:

It did not happen that a group or authority prevented people from visiting their neighbors and relatives of the poor, the needy and the needy, and taking out their surplus money as part of the process of competition for good and social solidarity

Reports indicate that the disruption of the social fabric by the arm of Iran is one of the systematic methods used by this group;  Its aim is to control all segments of society, including merchants, businessmen, cultural elites, politicians, media professionals, illiterates, marginalized people, minorities, and all forms of societal communication.

In Sana’a, the militia harassed the most famous commercial families and businessmen, Haider Fahem, al-Kbous, al-Sinidar, Beit al-Akwa, and a number of well-to-do people who used to help others, even though they pay zakat and duties, taxes doubly, and levies from supporting the fronts and holding religious events and sectarian rites.

A number of private radio stations were closed during the past three months;  This resulted in the layoff of dozens of male and female workers, the cancellation of a number of advertising contracts with companies, especially during the month of Ramadan, as an exceptional season.

The same thing was reflected by the militia in the most important Yemeni governorates, Ibb, as the radio stations were closed, the work crews were attacked there, and businessmen were prevented from distributing alms, food baskets and children's clothes.

These abuses, according to the citizens, prompted the affluent to deal in complete secrecy, and to try to distribute alms to the needy away from the eyes of the Houthis, in a manner similar to clandestine work, using some people and children to deliver alms and aid to those who deserve it.

Recently, the militia has become afflicted with unjustified hysteria towards the citizens who pray in mosques, as they have deliberately banned the Tarawih prayers on the pretext that they have a special program for Mr. Abdul-Malik Al-Houthi and must be watched on TV screens. Later, photos and videos revealed that they turned the mosques into places to store qat and dance.

Reports of organizations and activists have documented dozens of abuses in Sanaa, Amran, Ibb, Dhamar, Al-Bayda, Taiz and Hodeidah. The militia sought to close mosques, change the version of the call to prayer, and prevent Tarawih prayers.

These and other behaviors reflect the direction of the militia backed by the Iranian regime, and are considered grave crimes in the eyes of humanitarian and international law and the legislation enacted by the United Nations and accepted by the heavenly laws.
