MARIB-SABA
The Ministry of Human Rights branch office in Marib condemned the Houthi militia's continued shelling of rockets into the city densely populated with millions of residents and internal displacees.

The theocratic militia injured four civilians and damaged 12 houses and four business stores by one of the rockets they fired into the city at noon time on Tuesday.

"We in the HR office condemn this barbaric attack, one in a long list of systematic atrocities the Houthi militia have been committing against the population of Marib province," read a statement issued by the office on Wednesday. "We have
documented dozens of civilian casualties incurred by Houthi continued rocket shelling into the city over the past months. Most of the victims are women and children."

The office called on the international human rights organizations to document these atrocities and push for bringing the Houthi perpetrators to justice."
