The Houthi militia, the Iranian arm in Yemen, has issued a circular banning business during the call for Friday prayers in areas under its control.

The exact purpose of the Houthi militia is not known, but it comes as residents have turned away from Friday prayers and do not enter mosques because of sectarian religious sermons that the militia circulates in areas under its control.

The circular held the violators responsible and asked everyone to abide.
