Yemeni government bans term for Houthi detainees
The Yemeni Ministry of Legal Affairs has issued a directive to standardize terminology when referring to those who are detained from the Houthi militia elements. It emphasized that the term "detained members of the terrorist Houthi militia" should be used exclusively, and the term "prisoners of war" should be prohibited in media and military statements. This instruction is based on the decision of the National Defense Council, which classified the Houthis as a terrorist organization, and distinguishes legally between the term "prisoner of war," governed by the Geneva Convention and specific conditions, and media statements, which require precise classification.
