Yemeni Children Confront Food and Draft
The article discusses the danger of child recruitment in Yemen, particularly in areas controlled by the Houthi movement, amid ongoing fighting and deteriorating humanitarian conditions. The report indicates that displacement, unemployment, and malnutrition increase the vulnerability of children, making it easier to recruit them both militarily and ideologically. The United Nations documented the recruitment and use of 262 children in 2026, with warnings that the figures may rise due to the continuation of the conflict, as the group exploits poverty and school closures to increase the number of children targeted for recruitment. It recommends improving the protection of children, reintegrating them into schools, and providing nutritional and health support to address the worsening phenomenon that threatens the future of an entire generation of Yemenis.
