BEIDHA-SABA
The Houthis have kidnapped 13 people from the village of Sheryaf in the central Yemen province of Beidha on Saturday, on the account of their suspected opposition to the radical theocratic militia, local sources said.

The sources provided Saba with the names of the kidnapped villagers saying they were forced into disappearance and no one knows about their detention places.

The sources said the militia intensified in the past few months their abuses against the people of Sheryaf and many surrounding villages: Shelling them with heavy gunfire and mortar rounds, raiding homes and arresting people and enforcing them into disappearance.
