The Houthi militia, the Iranian arm in Yemen, has formed what it called the mobilization committees and educational organization, to celebrate the "birth of the prophet", in all public and private schools in Sana'a under its control.
According to the crowd plan documents, the Houthis, through the Ministry of Education run by Yahya Badr al-Din al-Houthi, the brother of militia leader Abdul Malik al-Houthi, have forced private schools to form crowd committees to celebrate the birth of the prophet.
The documents show that the militia has set up a rallying committee to celebrate, in every public and private school in Sana'a, headed by school principals and agents, with four to five members.
The Houthi militia is using religious events to mobilize sectarian and combat in areas of its control in northern Yemen, especially the capital Sana'a, as well as looting citizens, traders and private sector companies, by imposing financial royalties under the pretext of supporting the celebrations.
The Houthis are working to devote their sectarian rhetoric to all schools in Sana'a, which they have controlled for five years, and on religious occasions, they find ideal opportunities to intensify sectarian mobilization and sectarian discourse in society.
Almost a month ago, the Houthi militia has been mobilizing rhetoric to celebrate the Prophet's birthday by obliging private and public schools to organize morning broadcasts in accordance with the literature of the intellectual community, in addition to the extortion of private schools in areas under their control, in the name of supporting the effectiveness of the Prophet's Birthday.
