      I think this is the source of the claim. I have no doubt that a lot of human trafficking happens in Yemen (that tends to be the case when there’s a civil war, bombing from a larger country, and a lot of refugees) but it’s reaching quite a bit to lay that all at the feet of the Houthis and claim that they’re bringing slavery back.

      • First off, it’s a Saudi-backed newspaper, second, it’s hearsay after hearsay (Eg. A told me that B did this evil thing, even though I didn’t witness what A ‘saw’)

        but it’s reaching quite a bit to lay that all at the feet of the Houthis and claim that they’re bringing slavery back.

        Yeah, after what the Saudis have done to Yemen, I’m pretty sure they want a post-hoc explanation to the marde…
