Medical sources in the capital, Sanaa, said that the refrigerators of major government hospitals were filled with the corpses of fighters of the Houthi militia, the Iranian arm in Yemen, who were killed during the past days at the Ma'rib front.

The sources confirmed that the instructions of the militia security leaders, to the hospital administrations, included preventing the leakage of any information about the numbers of dead and bodies that were brought into the refrigerators of the dead in these hospitals, while this matter is dealt with in complete confidentiality by Houthi leaders who refrain from informing the families of the dead with any information about Their sons for fear that this would negatively affect their ability to mobilize new fighters from the tribes.
The past days have witnessed the funeral of large numbers of militia dead as a result of Marib confrontations, who the Houthi leaders were unable to prevent their information from reaching their families, but the number of deaths increased dramatically despite the militias and their leaders to resort to a strict policy of secrecy, especially in their dealing with their dead from the tribes.
To compensate for their losses, the militias intensified their campaigns to mobilize and recruit new fighters by sending militia leaders who occupy executive positions such as Muhammad Ali al-Houthi and Abu Ali al-Hakim, and governors of the governorates under their control to hold meetings with tribal sheikhs and ask them to send new fighters to the Ma'rib front, in exchange for giving them money on the one hand, And make promises to them that the liberation of Marib will lead to the availability of oil, gas and electricity.
