WARSAW - SABA
Yemen's ambassador to Poland, Mervat Mujalli, stressed the need to exert international pressure on the Houthi coupist militia to curb its violation of Yemeni women's rights, which they practice in various ways.

This came during her virtual meeting with the head of the Women's Rights Organization in Poland during which Dr. Mervat reviewed the violations of the Houthi militias against women in the militia's areas of control, including torture, rape, abuse and murder.

She said that the Yemeni woman, before the militias' coup against the state, was able to adopt legislation to expand her participation as a candidate and elected representatives in local and parliamentary councils and all state institutions, but the militias have now prevented women from exercising their most basic rights as human beings, up to the point of depriving them of their families by kidnapping their sons and brothers to recruit them to the war.
