Houthi Abductions Escalate in Ibb, Targeting Academics and Civil Servants
Human rights groups and local sources have reported a sweeping campaign of abductions carried out by Houthi forces in Yemen's Ibb governorate, targeting dozens of government employees, academics, and civil society figures. The wave of detentions—described as one of the largest in recent months—has sparked alarm over the growing repression in Houthi-controlled areas. According to field reports, more than 70 individuals have been detained in recent days, including university professors, doctors, lawyers, bank employees, and religious scholars. The arrests were conducted without judicial warrants, often involving armed raids on homes, workplaces, and public institutions. Among the prominent cases: - Dr. Mohammed Al-Sharh, a university lecturer, was abducted from his office. - Hamoud Al-Maqbali, head of HR at the University of Science and Technology, was taken from campus. - Mohammed Al-Salmi, a disabled former NGO director, was detained despite suffering from chronic health conditions. - Mohammed Al-Khawlani, a Quran scholar preparing his PhD, was seized from a religious center. Rights monitors say the detainees are being held in secret prisons, where reports of torture and forced confessions have emerged. The Yemeni Network for Rights and Freedoms documented 83 cases of arbitrary detention in Ibb between March and July 2025, including nine enforced disappearances and multiple cases involving minors and educators. Calls are mounting for international intervention, with rights groups urging the UN and humanitarian agencies to pressure the Houthis for the immediate release of detainees and accountability for abuses.

Report: Houthis Accused of Widespread Abuses Against Religious Leaders in Yemen
Sana'a - A new human rights report has revealed alarming levels of violence and repression targeting religious scholars, mosque imams, and worshippers in areas under Houthi control in Yemen. The findings, published by the Yemeni Network for Rights and Freedoms, document over 4,500 violations committed between 2014 and mid-2025. According to the report, at least 277 religious figures were killed, including imams, Quran teachers, and preachers. Victims were reportedly shot, tortured, or killed in bombings and raids. The group also documented 386 abductions, many of which were followed by enforced disappearances and torture in secret detention centers. The Houthis are accused of systematically targeting mosques and religious institutions, with over 100 mosques bombed, 200 shelled, and dozens burned or looted. In many cases, the group allegedly replaced local imams with loyalists and converted mosques into military outposts or indoctrination centers. One of the most shocking incidents occurred on July 2, when Houthi militants reportedly bombed the home of Sheikh Saleh Hantous, a respected Quran teacher in Raymah province, killing him and critically injuring his wife. The attack was allegedly carried out after he refused to stop teaching Quran to children in his village. The report also highlights the forced closure of Quranic schools, the imposition of sectarian sermons, and the use of religious platforms to incite violence and suppress dissent.
