Bin Mubarak detailed the American diplomat on the Houthi militias' ongoing aggressive military operations and atrocities against the civilians in Marib governorate, namely in al-Abdia District where the militiamen have been launching brutal military operations against the unfortunate villagers who are subjected to strangling blockade and vicious military attacks with different heavy weapons.
