Three civilians, including a woman, have been killed by landmines in three Yemeni governorates over the past week, according to human rights sources. The mines are believed to be remnants of explosives planted by the Houthi group, designated as a terrorist organization by several countries.

The Yemeni Landmine Observatory reported in a post on "X" seen by "Barran Press", that 60-year-old Ali Rajih al-Hibasi was killed by a Houthi landmine while tending his livestock in the Muwazze' district of Taiz governorate.

In al-Bayda governorate, the Observatory tweeted that 40-year-old Salem Ali al-Siqal was killed by a Houthi landmine while tending his sheep near his home in al-Bahj village, Zahar district. rights sources also reported that a woman in her late fifties was killed on Wednesday, September 18, by a landmine planted by the Houthis in the western governorate of Hodeidah. The incident occurred while the victim was gathering firewood in the Sal'a area, east of the "airport" area in the Hodeidah city's al-Hook district.

Human rights reports accuse the Houthis of turning Yemen into the world's largest minefield by planting over two million landmines. Human rights organizations have repeatedly called on the Houthi group to provide maps of the landmines they have planted to organizations working in demining.
