The dreams of Yemeni women vanished after the terrorist Houthi militia took control of the capital, Sana’a. They shrank greatly, the spaces in front of them narrowed, and many doors that had been opened for them were closed in their face as a gain from the gains of the Republican regime, the September 26 Revolution, and all the stages of struggle in which women were partners and were able to achieve During which it confirms its presence as a major component that contributes to making the various transformations that concern our Yemeni people.
However, the most dangerous of all that was lost under the Houthi influence is the real danger that this influence brought towards women, represented by the assault on them and the threat to their security, peace, and right to live, whether directly or indirectly, in addition to the confiscation of their material rights, plundering them, and restricting the areas of their achievements after that. That all political and moral gains were confiscated.
In the areas under the control of the terrorist group, Yemeni women have come to live under a difficult reality of persecution, marginalization, and violence, whether physical or psychological
There are many stories that we have heard of the practice against women by members of the group itself or by those practiced within the framework of the family and community environment after the infection of targeting women was transmitted by the terrorist group to some components of society, and this infection has become stronger because it lives in a circular circle and is transmitted from The group to society and from society to the group. The group carries out its attacks against women, and society cannot save or defend them. The environment practices violence against them with the encouragement of the group’s authority and a clear disavowal of carrying out its duty as a de facto authority in this regard.
But the largest share of attacks against women and the practice of violence against them comes from the authority of the Houthi group, which went further in its aggression and the crime rate against it increased, starting with depriving it of stability and living in peace and abolishing its role in the public cultural, intellectual and scientific space, then intimidation, psychological and physical assault, and the complete scene of violence. She was forcibly disappeared within prison walls after fabricating imaginary charges against her and preventing human rights organizations from defending her.
This made it difficult to find accurate statistics and after programs related to the protection of women were banned
This group has transgressed all Yemeni moral and humanitarian norms, jumped all forces and protocols for protecting women, and committed all violations against women, which requires raising our voice loudly and demanding urgent action to protect Yemeni women from the organized violence practiced by the Houthi group.
