The Ministry of Endowments and Guidance has condemned Houthi militia's terrorist actions against mosques.
In statement the Yemeni News Agency (Saba) obtained, the Ministry stated that Houthi militia detonated a mosque in the village of Haqar Bani Falah of Jahran district, to the north of Dhamar city.
