Sanaa, Newsyemen, private:
Despite international warnings and the detection of cases infected with the Corona virus in the capital, Sanaa, the Houthi militia is still deliberately concealing the announcement of the spreading of the pain in areas under its control.
The latest information speaks of dozens of infections, including many deaths, but the militias have announced a death from the Corona virus and claimed to be Somali.
The militias resorted to issuing a decision to close 10 neighborhoods in the center of the capital, Sanaa.
Yemeni activists, media, and politicians have strongly warned against the consequences of Houthi discretion, and the policy of misleading and obfuscation regarding dealing with the Corona pandemic, which threatens the lives of the population and the situation out of control.
They mocked the statements of the leaders of the group, headed by its leader Abdulmalik al-Houthi, and the third man in the group, Muhammad Ali al-Houthi, who described the pandemic as an American industry.
The head of the media center for the National Resistance, Muhammad Anam, considered the closure of the Houthi militia to ten neighborhoods in the capital, Sanaa, came after the terrorist group feared the outbreak of a popular revolution that would topple it.
He said, in a post on his account on "Twitter" that "the Houthi allegations that claim to take care of people's health are unacceptable to the mind, because the Houthi hypocrite will carry out arrests in the name of Corona after planting surveillance cameras and deploying crews inside each neighborhood."
Another Yemeni researcher, Osama Al-Rouhani, has another perception, as he said that one of the reasons for the Houthis' fear of declaring injuries to Corona is the dependence of its resources on tax collection, economic movement, and the black market for oil and others in the areas it controls, which are the most densely populated in Yemen.
He explained, in a post on his account on "Twitter", that stopping the movement means stopping the sources of its income. Therefore, Houthi militias do not care about people's lives.
Activist Maysaa Shujauddin described the Houthis 'announcement of one Somali who suffers from corona as "provocative" and that the number of cases is greater and they are Yemenis ... She indicated that the Houthis' oppressive and violent treatment with the spread of Corona is not surprising from an authority that does not want to assume the most basic responsibilities of the authority that enjoys all its privileges , adding that the Houthis fear the news of the spread of the disease, which has exceeded its stages.
She noted, in posts on her Twitter account, that the Kuwait Hospital in Sanaa is closed and the medical staff is under threat if someone discloses the number of cases.
