RIYADH-SABA

Minister of Information Muammar al-Eryani affirmed the importance of designing a targeted media message to counter the sectarian ideology and calls for dividing the country's social fabric as practiced by the Houthi militia.

In a journalistic training workshop in Riyadh, he cited what the press institutions, the public and private ones, endured over the past five years at the hands of the Iran-backed militia that had mounted a coup and triggered a devastating war.

"Perhaps everybody remembers the address of the notorious (Houthi leader) Abdulmalik al-Houthi whereby he labeled journalists as more dangerous on his militia "than those who raise arms" against the militia in the battlefield."
