Houthi crackdown on fashion reveals they are no different from other terror organizations: Eryani

[08/07/2021 02:41]

ADEN-SABA
Yemen's Information Minister Muammar al-Eryanis said the Houthi militia's crackdown on women dress fashion reveals the Houthi militia as no different from other terror organisations.

In a statement to Saba, al-Eryani slammed the militia for cracking down on clothes shops to confiscate women underwear, and non-segregating restaurants and wedding halls to close them "under flimsy excuses."

"These practices reveal the real ugly face of the Houthi militia and how it does not differ from other terrorist organizations.

"Those practices show the magnitude of suppression that millions of Yemeni civilians are subjected to under the reign of the militia," Eryani said, demanding an international intervention.

He called for supporting the Yemeni government and people to establish their civilian state that respects rights and freedom and establish the future Yemenis deserve.
