Houthis use aid for extortion
The article focused on the Houthi strategies in Yemen to turn humanitarian work into a tool for extortion. Since May 2024, they have arbitrarily detained a large number of United Nations employees and international organization staff, either individually or through raids on their offices. This ongoing detention has rendered humanitarian efforts ineffective, halting many essential projects such as food and medicine distribution, which threaten the lives of millions of Yemenis. The Houthis aim to use aid as leverage to obtain funding and political settlements, thereby obstructing the delivery of necessary humanitarian assistance and transforming aid into a weapon in their power struggle, in violation of international laws and clearly constituting a war crime.
