"The landmines were lifted by the Joint Resistance Forces not exceed 10% of the number of landmines planted by the Houthi militias, the Journalist and activist Mujahid al-Qub",  said the head of the Monitoring Center for Rights, Freedoms and Sustainable Development (RFSD).

Al-Qub added that the real area in which the mines were laid is much larger than the area that the militias admitted in planting them; moreover, the areas that were lifted landmines are also not yet safe.

There are declared massacres, where innocent people are killed every day," said al-Qub.

He added that RFSD documents "the names of the victims who were buried by their relatives from time to time, after they found evidence of their identities, and others are still missing .. All we know about them that they passed through the fields of death".

"Houthis are planting mines in the heart of the houses that the people have been displaced  ... Mrs. Maryam Ahmed Saeed, may God have mercy on her, was torn apart in front of her four children.

The head of RFSD said on Friday 11/02/2018, Mrs. Fatima Mahim was killed, her brother Mr. Dawoud injured seriously by the Houthi landmine, while Ms. Khawlah was entered into an Intensive care Unit for ten days in al-Hodeida province.
