Yemen Rights Network documents over 36,000 Houthi violations against children



Saturday, September 12, 2026 - The Yemen Rights Network has documented more than 36,000 alleged violations against children attributed to the Houthi movement, highlighting the continuing impact of Yemen’s prolonged conflict on young people.

The reported violations include cases involving killings, injuries, recruitment and other abuses, according to the rights group’s findings.

The figures underline the severe risks faced by children in areas affected by the conflict. Years of violence have disrupted education, separated families and exposed young people to conditions that can have lasting physical and psychological consequences.

Rights organizations continue to call for greater protection of children and accountability for violations committed against them.

The latest documentation adds to growing concerns over the humanitarian situation in Yemen and the need for stronger safeguards for children.


As efforts continue to address the country’s wider crisis, rights groups are urging authorities and international organizations to prioritize child protection and ensure that alleged abuses are properly investigated.
