Local sources in Sana'a governorate revealed a directive to the terrorist Houthi militia, Iran's arm in Yemen, to replace the name of the Seventy Martyrs Center for Literacy with the name of its fallen founder Hussein Badr al-Din al-Houthi, brother of the rebel leader Abdul-Malik.

This comes within the framework of its persistent efforts to obliterate the Yemeni identity, dismantle the social fabric and the modernization of education in Yemen, coinciding with the anniversary of the September 26 revolution.

 It is worth noting that it is not the first time that the identity of places has been affected, as the names of schools in Hajjah Governorate have been replaced by sectarian names.  

A decision issued by the Governorate’s Education Office aimed to change the names of 12 primary and secondary schools in the “Al-Shahil” district of Hajjah last June.

Among the targeted schools is Al-Zubayri School, and the name has been replaced by Al-Imam Al-Hadi School.  The designation "July 17" was also replaced by "Sayyida Zainab bint Ali" and "Al-Miqth" by "Imam Hassan bin Ali", emphasizing its sectarian approach.  The name "Omar Al-Mukhtar" was not spared the resentment of the Houthi militia, which changed the name of the school to naming it after one of its dead.
