The Houthis have launched a levy drive targeting shops, restaurants and businesses in Sana’a, forcing owners to set up donation boxes to support the “war effort” and the families of their dead and wounded, and pressuring traders and customers to contribute money. The group distributed more than 320 boxes in the first two days and plans to distribute about 4,000 more. Traders said they had been threatened, and some were forced to put their own money into the boxes to avoid punishment. Sources added that Houthi members collect the money daily and transfer it to bank accounts belonging to Houthi leaders. The burden on residents and the private sector is growing amid falling sales and a deepening cost-of-living crisis.
