Yemen Houthis Introduce Electronic Surveillance at Sana'a Checkpoints
Local and security sources reported that the Houthi militia intensified their security measures in Sana'a by establishing new checkpoints and inspecting travelers' mobile phones, especially those arriving from government-controlled areas or regions with license plates issued from the liberated areas. Computer devices were used to match data of wanted individuals before checking the phones, and the campaign resulted in the detention of some travelers whose devices contained content deemed objectionable by the group. This has raised wide concern over restrictions on movement and privacy. The Houthis are severely intensifying their surveillance of citizens' movement, posing a threat of escalating security restrictions on the city's residents.
