Houthi militias have stormed, vandalized, and looted the home of the late President Abdullah Al-Sallal, the first leader of the Yemen Arab Republic, in Al-Hudaydah Governorate. Local sources report that the home suffered extensive damage due to the militia’s actions.
Sources indicate that Houthi members ransacked the home, stealing valuable possessions and destroying its contents. They removed doors and windows, causing significant structural damage. This attack highlights the militia’s ongoing campaign against national and historical symbols in Yemen.
Observers believe this assault is part of the Houthis’ broader strategy to erase republican symbols that played a crucial role in Yemen’s history. Abdullah Al-Sallal, born in 1917 and passing away in 1994, was a key figure in the September 26 Revolution. He served as the President of the Yemen Arab Republic from 1962 to 1967.
This incident represents a continuation of the series of actions perpetrated by Houthi militias, which include blatant violations of human rights and international laws. Targeting national symbols reflects the militia’s policy of spreading chaos and undermining security and stability in the country.
In conclusion, the attack on the home of President Abdullah Al-Sallal serves as further evidence of the Houthis’ extremist behavior, which contradicts the values of the Yemeni Republic and the legitimacy of state institutions.
