Houthis accused of sending child soldiers to Yemen front lines
Original: Houthis forcing children to fight on Yemen’s battlefields, civil society groups warn
Yemeni civil society groups say the Houthis are forcibly recruiting children and deploying them to fight on battlefields across Yemen. Activists report families being pressured or coerced into handing over sons, with minors used in combat and support roles despite international prohibitions on the use of child soldiers. The warning renews attention on the humanitarian toll of Yemen's decade-long conflict and calls for accountability.
Why now: Civil society organisations have issued a fresh public warning about ongoing child recruitment in Yemen's conflict.
