Legal questions arise over limits on electronic cards for displaced youth
The Civil Status Authority in Yemen, upon the directive of its head, has decided not to issue electronic national identity cards to young displaced individuals from northern governorates, limiting issuance to the elderly, the ill, and their families until further notice. This decision raises legal questions regarding its compliance with the laws regulating civil status work, especially as the directive coincides with a security campaign in Aden targeting people from northern governorates for lacking identification documents. While it is known that the decision falls within security measures, its legality and compatibility with citizens' rights remain unclear, particularly given the difficult humanitarian circumstances, as displaced persons are among the most vulnerable groups. Experts are calling on the Ministry of Interior to clarify the legal basis for this restriction to ensure that they are not discriminated against or their civil rights violated.
