The war in Yemen is a conflict that has been going on for more than 7 years. Officially it is a civil war between the government forces of Mansur Hadi and the Shia “rebels” Houthi, but in reality it is a proxy war between Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, the United States and Iran for control of the Arabian Peninsula and the strategic Bab El Mandeb Strait. Unfortunately, the UN has described the war as one of the worst humanitarian catastrophes currently underway. In this documentary video we delve into the history of Yemen, the origin of the war, how it broke out, and the interests at stake.

The Yemeni Civil War (2014-2022)

Situated in the southwestern corner of the Arabian Peninsula, Yemen is sometimes referred to as the ‘Wild West of the Arab World.’ Mountains, tribes, drugs, a sectarian divide and foreign meddling have come together into the toxic cocktail of civil war. Houthi rebels, armed with an impressive arsenal of rockets and with Iranian backing face off against the Yemeni army propped up by a Saudi-led coalition who are in turn supported by several Western powers. At the same time, an armed group fights for the secession of Southern Yemen while Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula further muddies the water, fighting against all other factions present. Humanitarian organisations are warning that Yemen is facing the ‘world’s worst humanitarian crisis.’ So how did it come to this? This is History of Today: The Yemeni Civil War.

Dirty War in Yemen: 7 Years of Cruelty, Famine and Suffering | Investigative Documentary

Sep 5, 2023
After seven years of war, there is no end in sight to the suffering in Yemen. In this exclusive film, we report on the situation in the north-west of Yemen, held by the Houthis. 21 million people live in this enclave. There, since 2015, out of sight, a dirty war has been going on.

Sana’a, North of Yemen. One of the most inaccessible places on the planet. For the past six years, Ansar Allah, a political and military movement created by powerful families from the North, has seized control. But Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are determined to reinstall the ousted Yemeni president. They see the Houthi rebels, who belong to the Zaydist branch of Islam, as heretics who pose a threat to Wahhabism. Using weapons provided by the West, they relentlessly bombard the North in a dirty war. Over 230,000 Yemenis have already died.

A strict, expertly maintained embargo is also starving the population. According to UN agencies, Yemen is facing one of the worst famines in the world with 400,000 children reportedly at risk of death. New diseases have appeared since the beginning of the war and there has been a sharp increase in babies born with abnormalities.
