Hodeidah: Houthi militia continues to target street vendors and stalls, detaining dozens in the ongoing crackdown.

Houthi Militias Launch New Campaign Against Street Vendors in Al Hudaydah

The Houthi militia has initiated a new campaign targeting street vendors and small business owners in Al Hudaydah province. This aggressive operation has resulted in the abduction of dozens of individuals and the destruction of their properties.

Details of the Campaign

According to the local media center affiliated with the legitimate authority, the crackdown began on Tuesday and Wednesday. It primarily focused on the streets of Al Hudaydah city and surrounding areas under Houthi control. The operation was led by Houthi leader Mohammed Al-Nuwaireh, who falsely claims the title of traffic director for the province. The campaign involved the removal of kiosks and stalls, as well as the demolition of commercial shops.

Impact on Local Businesses

The media center reported that the Houthi campaign resulted in the abduction of numerous vendors and shop owners. Notably, the properties belonging to Houthi leaders and their affiliates remained untouched. This selective enforcement highlights the oppressive measures that continue to exacerbate the suffering of citizens living in Houthi-controlled regions.

Ongoing Repression

This latest campaign is part of a broader pattern of repressive actions that the Houthi militia employs to maintain control over the population. The local community faces increasing hardships as these measures further restrict their livelihoods and economic opportunities.

In summary, the Houthi militia’s recent actions against street vendors in Al Hudaydah reflect a troubling trend of repression and violence that continues to impact the lives of ordinary citizens in the region.
