Tribes in Dammaj, Saada, reject Saudi claims that Yemen threatens holy sites

Dammaj, Yemen ·

Residents of the Wadea tribes in Dammaj, Saada, said in a statement issued after an armed tribal gathering they held that morning that they firmly reject Saudi claims that Yemen threatens Islamic holy sites, calling them false.

Yemen's Houthi movement (Ansar Allah), which controls Sanaa and much of northern Yemen, has been in conflict with a Saudi-led coalition since 2015. Saada governorate, where Dammaj lies, is the movement's traditional northern stronghold.
