MARIB - SABA
The health of a Yemeni journalist has been deteriorating so badly in a Houthi militant-run jail in Sana’a that now his life is in danger, his relatives said.

Tawfeek Al-Mansouri, jailed by the terrorist theocratic militia since 2015, “suffers asthma, rheumatic heart, diabetes and the early symptoms of kidney failure” among other emerging diseases, his relatives told the Yemen Journalists Union in a statement.

His relatives said he needs “urgent medical intervention” but the militants do not allow him access to health nor allows any emergency medicines to be admitted” to the detention cells.

The extremist theocratic militia does not allow any form of dissent and have cracked down on all journalists killing and arresting them and forcing many to flee outside the country.
