News Center- On Thursday, a Houthi militant shot four women from his family, killing one and injuring three others.

According to the received reports, Haitham Muhammad Ali Al-Ashawi, a Houthi militant, killed his aunt and seriously injured his wife, daughter and other aunt in Yemen.

The Houthis, the de facto authority in much of Yemen, have violated the rights of women and girls, including their rights to freedom of movement, freedom of expression, health, and work, as well as widespread discrimination. The Houthis have increasingly restricted women’s freedoms since taking over Sanaa in September 2014.
