Houthis kidnap an educator in Taiz and prevent his family from learning his fate

Jabal Habashi, Yemen ·

Local information says a Houthi group abducted Mohammed Abduljalil al-Mujahid, former head of Moein school, after he returned from displacement. The incident took place in Azlat al-Qahaf in Jabal Habashi district, western Taiz governorate.

Yemen has been in a civil war since 2014 between the internationally recognised government and Yemen's Houthi movement (Ansar Allah), which controls Sanaa and much of the north. Taiz is one of the country's most contested governorates, where armed groups have clashed for years.
