The Houthi militia forced employees of the Central Organization for Control and Accounting to enroll in a military training course, as part of its courses targeting all government sectors in areas under its control.

Two sources in the Central Organization for Control and Accounting in Sanaa said on Monday that the militias forced the agency’s employees to take a military course to train in the use of machine guns.

The two sources added that the militias intend to transfer the employees to Hodeidah Governorate, in preparation for participation in military operations against the international coalition forces in the Red Sea.

One source indicated that the militias threatened employees who refused to attend the courses by dismissing them from their jobs and replacing them with others from their members.

The militias force all government sectors to attend intensive sectarian and military courses, to ensure that state institutions are subject to their complete control, and to remove the remaining employees from their jobs.
