Houthis escalate strain on Yemeni women
Yemeni women have been significantly affected by the ongoing military escalation by the Houthis. Reports indicate that the war has led to the displacement of large numbers of families and the loss of their sources of income, alongside the deterioration of healthcare and educational services, and restrictions on freedom of movement and mobility. Women bear double burdens, as they are forced to meet the daily needs of their families and face risks of detention and forced recruitment, particularly in Houthi-controlled areas. Additionally, poverty rates are rising, along with dropout rates from school and early marriages. The United Nations warns that continued escalation will perpetuate the displacement crisis and increase the suffering of women and girls, with reduced access to reproductive health services and rising levels of violence and exploitation.
