In a heartbreaking human scene that sums up the depth of the tragedy and the extent of the Houthi crimes, a Yemeni mother documented difficult moments carrying her daughter’s body on her back, overcoming the horror of the tragedy and the cruelty of death, after the Houthi militia killed her and her elderly father in Taiz Governorate, southwest of the country.

According to the horrific details of the crime, the Houthi militia bombed a house in the village of “Aden” in Sabr District in Taiz, killing an elderly man and his daughter.

Human rights sources and local activists reported that a brutal bombing was launched by the Houthi militia on Tuesday, targeting a house in the village of “Al-Aden” in the “Nidani” area in the “Sabr Al-Mawadim” district, killing the citizen Muhammad Qasim Ali Abdullah Al-Naqeeb (65 years old), and his daughter, “Mushira” (35 years old).

The militias were not satisfied with their bloody crime, but went further in their crime by deliberately targeting the ambulance that arrived at the scene to recover the victims, in flagrant violation of all humanitarian laws and norms.

In the face of this criminal intent to cut off means of survival and the absence of safe means of transportation due to continuous targeting, the grieving mother had no way to carry her daughter except her shoulders and back. So she carried her body and went on a final, bloody and bitter farewell journey.

These moments, shared by Yemeni activists on social media, have turned into a painful icon that reflects the extent of the suffering and the cruelty of the Houthi siege imposed on the city of Taiz, summarizing that mother with her patience and overwhelming pain, the pain of millions of Yemenis, and the cry of a city thickened by the wounds of war and collective punishment.
