Houthi rebels, who emerged in northern Yemen in the 1990s and have been fighting the government since 2004, took over Yemen's capital Sanaa in 2014 and much of the north in 2016.

With access to Yemen's military hardware – including missiles, tanks and air power – and the support of Iranthe Houthis have only continued to grow current and size over the years.

The rebel group considers Israel an enemy and made a point of pledging allegiance to Hamas in November imposed a shipping blockade on the Red Sea.

The country recently vowed to continue targeting ships in the region after a series of attacks US and British attacks on Houthi bases.

But the rebels are also increasing their violence against ordinary Yemeni civilians human rights from activists to media officials and fishermen, in an ongoing ISIS-style reign of terror.

A Yemeni researcher for Human Rights Watch, Niku Jafarnia, said the Houthis were using their attacks in the Red Sea to distract the world from “rights violations” at home.

Such abuses, including public torture and executions, have increased since the Red Sea attacks.

Mrs. Jafarnia told The Telegraph“While the Houthis are busy promoting an image to the world that they are defending Palestinians in Gaza from Israel's atrocities, they are silencing Yemenis who dare to criticize them.”

A Yemeni Army media spokesperson Rashid Maarouf made a similar claim, stating: “Many of the death sentences were handed down after the war on Gaza.

“We are all seriously considering leaving Yemen to live abroad. There is no security in the country. The Houthis have great influence… We are all in danger.”

Just two weeks ago, human rights activist Fatima Al-Arouli was sentenced to death on charges of spying for the United Arab Emirates, which has been part of a Saudi-led coalition against the Houthis for almost a decade.

Both Saudi Arabia and the UAE tried to restore Yemen's government in 2015, but the violent conflict has dragged on, killing tens of thousands of people and leaving millions dependent on humanitarian aid.

The Houthis continue to hold massive military parades, showing off their ballistic missiles and weapons drones in a chilling warning to foreign forces 'to leave or…confront' volcanoes of Yemeni anger”.

It is believed that Fatima was arrested two years ago, upon her return from Dubai, and will be executed within days.

She is just one of many Yemeni citizens set to be executed.

Fifteen-year-old Khaled Ateeq Saleh Al-Awadi was first captured by the Houthis two years ago, and his desperate mother has since begged to be released and returned to her.

Maarouf explained: “The child's mother has begged the Houthi leadership to release her only son.

“She has no [other] children.”

He continued: “The militias have killed many media activists.

“I was exposed to many threats and assassination attempts, and I was forced to travel to the border with Saudi Arabia to work in a military area that is considered safer than the interior.”

The recent takeover of Yemen's judiciary by Houthi chief Mohammed Al Houthi is believed to be behind the recent number of executions, as it gave his movement the power to 'expedite' sentences.

People can now obtain execution orders within days, while previously this took up to two years.

In 2021, the rebels executed nine people – including a 17-year-old boy – who they said were spies for the Saudi-led coalition and involved in the assassination of a senior rebel official three years earlier.

Hundreds of people, mostly Houthis and their supporters, attended the execution, which took place by firing squad in Sanaa.

But Yemen's first public execution in more than a decade took place in August 2017, when a Yemeni man was shot in front of a crowd after being convicted of raping and murdering a three-year-old girl.

After taking over the judiciary, the rebels now also have the power to take the property and assets of anyone they don't like.

Yemeni human rights activists claim that fishermen are also being targeted and killed by the Houthis for defying their ban on fishing.

Eight fishermen from Al-Khawkhah district reportedly disappeared a month ago and have yet to be found, while the bodies of two other fishermen were found last week with gunshot wounds, which had decomposed to such an extent that they could not be identified.

It is predicted that the fishing ban itself – which entails a complete ban on fishing and the elimination of all fishing boats in the sea – will worsen famine among citizens and leave countless families without a source of income.

Harrowing images last month with armed children in a crowd emerged as thousands took to the streets in Yemen to protest against air strikes by Britain and the US.

Houthi supporters poured into the streets of Sanaa en masse, chanting “America is the devil.” night blitz.

Meanwhile, in a disturbing warning to the US military on Sunday, Tehran told America to leave Iranian spy ships alone in the Red Sea.

Tensions in the Red Sea explained

A British-owned cargo ship was attacked in the Red Sea this morning, days after Britain and the US launched air strikes on Houthi rebels.

Houthi forces in Yemen have launched a series of drone and missile attacks on Israeli-affiliated ships in response to the ongoing war in Gaza.

The strikes, allegedly in solidarity with the Palestinians, have disrupted maritime trade by targeting routes that represent about 15 percent of global shipping traffic.

Several shipping companies have been forced to divert their ships transiting the Suez Canal and the Bab al-Mandeb Strait to an alternative and longer route around the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa.

Such changes have caused major delays and affected companies such as Suzuki, Tesla, BP, Shell, Qatar Energy, DHL, FedEx, Adidas, Marks & Spencer, Next, Primark, Sainsbury's and Target.

American warships launched a barrage of rocket attacks on Iran-backed countries Houthi targets in the Red Sea which reportedly posed an “imminent threat” to American ships.

The US Central Command said on Sunday that the US was carrying out additional strikes “in self-defence”.

It claimed the strikes targeted a Houthi land-attack cruise missile and four anti-ship cruise missiles that were “ready to launch” against ships in the Red Sea.
