Public Prosecution of the Internationally Recognized Government of Yemen (IRG) has announced the freezing of assets and prohibition of dealings with 398 individuals, entities, and vessels linked to the Houthi rebels.
The decision was revealed during a high-level meeting at the Public Prosecution Office in Aden, chaired by Prosecutor General Judge Qaher Mustafa.
According to the official statement, the measures include 303 individuals, 83 entities, and 12 ships, all identified as part of a broader network supporting terrorist financing.
The action is part of the implementation process of international and national resolutions, including UN Security Council Resolution 2624 (2022), National Defense Council Resolution No. 1 (2022), and Presidential Leadership Council Resolution No. 8 (2024), which formally designated the Houthi rebels as a terrorist organization A.
The meeting brought together representatives from law enforcement, regulatory bodies, and financial oversight agencies, all committed to strengthening institutional coordination in the fight against money laundering and terrorism financing.
This move marks a significant escalation by the IRG to cut off funding sources to armed groups destabilizing the country.
The judiciary’s campaign is expected to continue with further investigations and enforcement actions targeting illicit financial flows and support networks tied to extremist organizations.
