Ba’oom pointed out that the government handled the plague figures with clarity and transparency announcing the fatalities and infecctions as they unfold.

He said that on the other hand, the Houthi militia controlling parts of the country continue to hide the number of covid-19 infections. He stressed the need for an international pressure to force the militia to disclose the infection figures in the areas they control.
