Sana'a, NewsYemen, private:
The terrorist Houthi militia has raised registration fees in public and private schools in an unprecedented way in Sanaa and the areas under its control, as part of a systematic plan to destroy education and blind Yemenis.
Educational sources told NewsYemen that the militia leadership at the Ministry of Education in Sana'a raised the registration fees this year for the primary stage in government schools to 4,500 riyals for each student, without taking into account the difficult living conditions experienced by residents in its areas.
The sources pointed out that this amount does not include the societal contribution imposed by the militia on students as wages for teachers, and the militia forces students to purchase school curricula from black markets, while it prints sectarian manuals and distributes them free of charge to students in hundreds of summer centers and camps from the revenues of hijacked state institutions.
The sources added that the Houthis' decision to raise fees is systematic and aims to blind children and deliberately deprive them of education to facilitate their recruitment and push them to sectarian courses to wash their minds and fill them with misguided ideas and then send them to the incinerators of death.
It noted that the Houthi militia's change of the school curriculum in the areas under its control prompted many well-to-do parents to teach their children in private schools, which are owned and run by Houthi leaders.
According to the sources, the leadership of the Houthi militia and the owners of private schools took advantage of the matter, to raise the registration fees for one academic year to $100, while the tuition fees for students of the Arabic section in the basic and secondary stages ranged between (160-350) thousand riyals for students of the Arab section, and (270-) 620 thousand riyals for students of the English section, and these amounts do not include curriculum fees, student bus fees and school uniforms.
Private and private schools pay Houthi militias more than 25 percent of their revenues, as taxes, royalties, and other commissions to Houthi supervisors.
The sources indicated that the Houthi militia made the citizens between two options, both of which passed, which is education in government schools with distorted sectarian curricula and fear of deceiving their children and sending them to fight in its ranks, and teaching them in private schools that generate large sums of money for the militia leaders and burden the citizens in their areas.
