Yemen : 1,232 Explosions by Houthi Militias Target Homes and Civil Infrastructure Across Yemen

Yemen Onlinea day ago
Aden — Yemeni Network for Rights and Freedoms has released a comprehensive report documenting 1,232 cases of deliberate explosions carried out by Houthi militias against homes, religious sites, schools, and public infrastructure across 17 provinces in Yemen.
The violations span from September 2014 to March 1, 2025, and are described as part of a systematic campaign of terror and forced displacement.
According to the report, the attacks included:
- 987 residential homes
- 76 mosques and Quranic centers
- 39 schools and educational facilities
- 37 commercial centers and shops
- 63 farms and water wells
- 18 political party headquarters
- 29 government buildings
- 9 health facilities
- 4 archaeological sites
- 156 bridges and public roads
Geographic Scope of Violations
Province of Taiz topped the list with 181 incidents, followed by Al-Bayda (132), Ibb (120), and Sana'a and the capital district (74). Other affected areas include Marib, Hodeidah, Saada, Hajjah, Dhamar, and Rima, among others.
Legal and Humanitarian Implications
The network condemned these acts as blatant violations of international humanitarian law, describing the explosions as tools of intimidation and demographic engineering. The report asserts that the Houthis use home demolitions as a form of collective punishment and ideological enforcement, aiming to subjugate communities to their Iran-backed agenda.
Call to Action
The organization urged the United Nations, its Special Envoy to Yemen, and international human rights bodies to issue clear condemnations and take urgent steps to protect civilians and vital infrastructure. It also called for independent investigations to hold perpetrators accountable and prevent further escalation.

UN: More than 600 Palestinians killed in Gaza since late May

Geneva – Saba: The United Nations announced on Friday that more than 600 Palestinians have been killed while trying to obtain humanitarian aid in the Gaza Strip since late May, amid the ongoing blockade and the growing threat of famine. Ravina Shamdasani, spokesperson for the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, said at a press conference in Geneva that the Office had recorded 613 deaths as of June 27, including 509 killed near distribution sites run by the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which is supported by the United States and Israel. Shamdasani explained that the other victims fell near distribution sites run by the United Nations and other humanitarian organizations, stressing that the numbers are still being updated and verified in light of the significant difficulties in accessing the affected areas. The spokeswoman asked: "It is clear that the Israeli army opened fire and shelled Palestinians trying to reach food distribution points. Who is responsible for all these casualties? And how many exactly?" Shamdasani emphasized that there are widespread doubts about the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which began distributing food aid on May 26, amidst rejection and condemnation from UN agencies and international humanitarian organizations that refused to cooperate with it, considering it a violation of humanitarian principles and contributing to the implementation of the Israeli occupation's military objectives. These developments come amid a stifling blockade imposed by the occupation authorities on the Gaza Strip since last March, and a near-total ban on the entry of aid. UN warnings that the population of Gaza is effectively facing famine, while Israeli attacks on civilians and food distribution areas continue. Whatsapp Telegram Email

Jawf holds 50 mass rallies supporting Palestinians, mobilizing against aggression

Jawf - Saba: Jawf governorate on Friday witnessed 50 massive rallies to support the Palestinian people, held under the slogan "Steadfast with Gaza, Readiness and Mobilization to Confront Aggression." Residents of Jawf affirmed their unwavering commitment to Yemen's supportive stance towards the oppressed Palestinian people and their just cause. The residdents vowed to continue mobilizing with greater momentum, preparing to confront any Zionist aggression. They in the rallies, which took place in the districts of al-Hazm, al-Mutun, al-Marashi, al-Anan, al-Humeidat, al-Matammah, Khabb wa ash Sha'af, al-Zahir, al-Khalaq, al-Maslub, Rujuzah, and al-Sail, expressed pride in the immense sacrifices made by the mujahideen of the Palestinian resistance. This comes despite the severe conditions they face due to the Zionist enemy's escalating criminal aggression and unjust blockade against the people of Gaza. The demonstrators renewed their mandate to Revolution Leader Sayyed Abdulmalik Badr al-Din al-Houthi to make all appropriate decisions and choices within Yemen's supportive stance towards the Palestinian people and in confronting the Zionist enemy. They urged all Arab and Islamic nations to abandon their shameful and complacent positions regarding the genocide and starvation inflicted upon their brethren in Palestine for nearly 21 months. A statement issued by Al-Jawf rallies strongly condemned the disgraceful silence of most Arab and Islamic regimes concerning the horrific crimes of killing, starvation, and destruction perpetrated by the Zionist and American enemy against the people of Gaza. The statement also denounced the global complicity and inaction that encourages the Zionist enemy to commit these atrocities. It affirmed that the Yemeni people, with their wise leadership, practical liberationist Quranic project, deeply rooted faith identity, and sincere jihadi movement, will not retreat from their great, steadfast positions supporting Gaza, all of Palestine, and Al-Aqsa Mosque. It added that the threats of the Zionists, Americans, and their proxies have not and will not intimidate the Yemeni people. The statement praised the heroic and legendary stands of the great men and women of the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank, and the remarkable steadfastness of Gaza's people and resistance in confronting the fiercest aggression. It highlighted that this remains a source of pride for the Yemeni people and an inspiring model for other nations, demonstrating that surrender and submission to enemies can never be justified by a lack of resources or difficult circumstances. The statement called upon Arab and Muslim peoples and regimes to boycott the goods and products of Israeli and American companies that contribute to supporting the criminal Zionist entity, which is committing the most heinous crimes of genocide in Gaza.
