Analysis: Al-Houthi adopts the Taliban policy against Yemeni women Aden, Ain Al-Janoub [caption id="attachment_1505" align="alignnone" width="300"] Analysis: Al-Houthi adopts the Taliban policy against Yemeni women[/caption]   An analysis published by the Carnegie Middle East Center confirmed that the Houthi militias - Iran's arm in Yemen - have been practicing reactionary policies since they came to power, not much different from what is happening at the hands of the Taliban in Afghanistan.   He added: Yemeni women have had the lion's share of the extremist policies practiced by the Houthi militias, through ignorance, siege, and dropping out of education. Pointing out that the return of this reactionary movement and the spread of its ideas will reflect negatively on the general situation of Yemeni women.   The analysis prepared by researcher Ismail Al-Aghbari explained that the series of Houthi decisions against female students in Yemen will leave a generation in which males are tyrants and women are victims, and a disintegrated and incoherent society. Pointing out that these policies will affect Yemeni families and deepen the control of the male mentality, and in the near future we will witness marginalized women, more incidents of domestic violence, and high divorce rates, and the number of women leaders and actors in society will shrink, if the group continues to implement such policies without deterrence or Hasib.   The analysis indicated that Sana'a University - which is the largest educational institution in the country - began implementing a new procedure at the beginning of the academic year, which is separating male and female students in the Faculty of Information for the first time since its founding, and the study days per week were divided into three days for each gender. The implementation of this decision later included other colleges such as: colleges of commerce, Sharia, and medicine.   The analysis stated: “At the end of last July, it was announced that studies would resume at the College of Information through the University Student Forum, and the announcement included the implementation of a procedure for separating the genders of students.” Explaining: “The Houthi militias established the University Student Forum as an alternative to the Yemeni Students Union, and this forum controls all academic decisions.   He pointed out that this decision was rejected by some academics, such as: Samia Al-Aghbari, Head of the Department of Journalism and Publishing at the College of Information, which led to her removal from her position, leaving the College Council completely devoid of women. The analysis pointed out that this gender-based exclusion comes as an organized approach practiced by the Houthi authority in their areas of influence.
