Houthis turn Al-Mahroos cemetery in Taiz into a weapons and missile depot

Taiz, Yemen ·

Local sources report that Houthi forces have converted the Al-Mahroos cemetery in the Shamayatain district, south of Taiz governorate, into a site for storing weapons and military equipment. The move has caused concern and resentment among residents.

Yemen has been divided since 2014 between the Houthi movement (Ansar Allah), which controls Sanaa and much of the north, and the internationally recognised government. Taiz is one of the country's most contested cities.
