Further to Monday’s newsletter by Helen Lackner “Houthiland: a nightmare vision becoming reality” we draw our members attention to a new 35-page report just released today by Amnesty International entitled “Released and Exiled: Torture, unfair trials and forcible exile of Yemenis under Huthi rule”. (https://www.amnesty.org/en/documents/mde31/3907/2021/en/).
