Houthis Block Yemeni Revolution Anniversary
The Houthi group is intensifying its security and surveillance measures in Sanaa and areas under its control to prevent celebrations of the 26 September Revolution anniversary, which overthrew the ancestral rule in 1962. The measures include phone inspections, monitoring activity on social media platforms, and the arrest of more than 30 individuals in Dhamar Governorate due to their updating their profile pictures with revolutionary symbols. Additionally, restrictions have been imposed on neighborhood officials, and property owners are being compelled to provide tenant information. Despite these restrictions, social media platforms continue to serve as outlets for festivities, as Yemenis have turned the revolution’s anniversary into a symbol of resistance. They also express their discontent with the group’s policies aimed at restricting freedoms and sending messages of defiance through digital means.
