Today’s Press – Over 6,000 Houthi Attacks on Yemeni Healthcare
The article highlights the violations suffered by the health sector in the areas controlled by the Houthis in Yemen from the beginning of 2020 through July 2026. These violations have resulted in more than 6,200 incidents, including the killing and injury of healthcare workers, arrests and enforced disappearances, the destruction and bombing of hospitals and health facilities, the looting of medical supplies, and the conversion of some facilities into military sites. The healthcare system has also been severely affected, with over 569 employees dismissed, about 48,000 staff deprived of their salaries, and a decline in investment activity in the pharmaceutical sector. These violations are part of a systematic policy aimed at dismantling and destroying the healthcare sector, threatening the right of millions of Yemenis to access healthcare. International organizations are calling for intervention to protect these facilities and their workers.
