since the Houthi militia coup against power, Yemen is moaning and aching.<\/p>\n<p>The pains of this coup have robbed joy and reassurance from the Yemenis, and kept them in grief and fear due to what they are suffering from this group&#8217;s brutality and rampant criminality until they led the country to experience the worst humanitarian crisis in the world, where 80% of the population is in need of aid apart from the accelerating numbers of dead and wounded.<\/p>\n<p>The situation in Yemen cannot be described as anything less than catastrophic. All families were affected by this group, which wreaked havoc on this good land.<br \/>\nSince the Houthi militia managed to tighten its grip on Sanaa and spread its groups in the streets under the pretext of securing it from any terrorist acts, as they claim, the country is breathing with great difficulty and suffering bitterness, as this group mastered death creation and devised new ways of revenge against the Yemenis.<\/p>\n<p>As the Houthi militia continues to terrorize the population by arresting thousands of them and sending the rest to their fate using mines that have been extensively deployed in all areas.<\/p>\n<p>Legally planting mines is a crime against humanity, with no statute of limitations for its perpetrators. Consequently, everyone who orders, sows, and participates in cultivating it, the hand of justice will reach him one day sooner or later<\/p>\n<p>However, the rebels are still seeking to blow up Yemen\u2019s present by launching their attacks and planting their mines, which threaten the future as well.<\/p>\n<p>Which was confirmed by the Managing Director of Project Masam, Mr. Ousama AlGosaibi, who said that the Houthi militia committed war crimes by planting thousands of mines and explosive devices in the Yemenis homes, their children&#8217;s schools and their livelihoods, indicating that such actions are a flagrant violation of human rights<\/p>\n<p>Masam engineering teams are fighting a fierce battle to clear these mines that are hidden under the soil and disguised in various forms, in order to easily attain victims.<\/p>\n<p>In the absence of maps indicating its landing sites, the search for ground buried mines remains exhausting and depends mostly on forecasting when explosions occur or based on citizens instructions, but this did not discourage Masam to continue their work with dedication trying to save what can be saved from souls, buildings and lands.<\/p>\n<p>And for the sake of this humanitarian work, where its details were drawn by the project hands of goodness, Masam lost 21 of its sons, in addition to the injury of other 16, including those who were permanently disabled.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Team 23 Masam was able to clear 2,151 mines, unexploded ordnance and explosive devices in Mawza&#8217;a directorate in Taiz governorate, which were planted on the main and secondary roads in Jahiliya region along with the surrounding areas, which constituted an obstacle to the movement of citizens.<\/p>\n<p>The team was also able to secure a total area estimated at 293166 square meters, which varied between road corridors, agricultural and residential areas.<\/p>\n<p>Mines have claimed the lives of thousands of civilians, in addition to causing permanent disabilities that have burdened health and treatment facilities, and economic losses to individuals and society who still hope for salvation from this disaster and its perpetrators.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_widget_sidebar show_bg=&#8221;false&#8221; sidebar_id=&#8221;sidebar_1&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1523980243435{background-color: #bfbfbf !important;border-radius: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column css_animation=&#8221;slideInLeft&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1524347545394{background-color: #a3a3a3 !important;border-radius: 15px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text] News [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;5\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_single_image source=&#8221;featured_image&#8221; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;right&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1524156224953{margin-bottom: 25px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1603662598515{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #b5b5b5 !important;border-radius: 15px !important;}&#8221;]More than six years since the Houthi militia coup against power, Yemen is moaning and aching.
