MARIB-SABA
A seminar organized by students of Saba University in the province of Marib has unveiled that the Houthi coup has caused 4,000,000 school boys and girls to drop out of schools.

Omar Radman, a researcher, said in a presentation that Houthi rebels' abuses of education have been various; recruitment of child fighters, confiscating teachers' salaries, destroying school buildings or militarizing them.

He said the rebel militia has caused the closure of 3548 schools across the country and changed the curricula with new ones of highly divisive sectarian content.

He said the militia "intimidated teachers, replaced others with loyalists and attacked others who demanded their salaries to be paid.
