The sources mentioned that communications monitoring equipment and technology were arrived in al-Hodeida port late last year by Lebanese Hezbollah experts specialized in programming and linking reconnaissance aircraft with the government communications network, which is completely under the Houthi control till now.
It cited that the Houthi militias disconnected the Internet service and communications from the liberated areas close to the lines of confrontation, as happened in al-Hodeida in particular, when they installed devices and techniques and linked them with drones.
The communications and guidance network is connected to operating rooms, which are managed by the military operations and their headquarters in Sana'a, where all the coordinates are sent to the sub-rooms that the aircraft was launched in Sa'ada, al-Hodeida and al-Jarrahi, south of al-Hodeida by the Houthi militias backed by Hezbollah expertise.
The Houthi militias are still controlling the capabilities of the government communications and using it for military purposes. Experts wonder whether the government and Legitimate authorities have a plan of any kind to deal with this reality and the kidnapped sector?
Experts warn the risk of depending all Yemeni provinces, including the liberated areas to the will and choices of the Houthi militias which run the telecommunications sector and Internet services, which threaten to cut services at any time and isolate everyone from the world with just a click of a button; not to mention the increasing military use of this sector in directing the movement of the Houthi drones..
