Houthis detonate a house with people in it in Dhamar

[11/11/2017 06:16]

DHAMAR-SABA
The Houthi rebel militias have detonated another house of a peaceful oppositionist, this time in Dhamar with relatives of the house's owner inside it.

One, by the name ofAhmed H. al-Askari, was killed and another was criticaly injured.

Eyewitnesses told Saba that a convoy of armed Houtthi militants stormed the village, placed landmines in the house and blew it up causing the casualties.

The radical militias' modus operandi of suppressing dissent against their extremist ideology includes, among many, the bombing of the oppositionists' houses and properties.

They have bombed large numbers of houses, offices, mosques, and public infrastructure since they began to form as a violent religious movement in 2004 and more widely since they began rebelling against Yemen's democratic transition in 2014.
