Protest Against Houthi Siege in Brussels

At the protest here in Brussels in front of the European Parliament against the siege of Taiz,

we're asking the people here, what has the Houthi group taken from you?

The Houthi group? Let's see the answers. What has the Houthi group taken from you?

On a strictly personal level, I mean,

the Houthis bombed my uncle's house and killed two children

and my uncle as well in this, in this war. But if we speak in

general terms, they are countless things.

What has the Houthi group taken from you?

They took my older brother, may God rest his soul, when he was twenty-two years

old. They took my childhood, they took away my

safety, they took everything beautiful in life. This group is a

tyrannical group that came to Taiz to wreck and destroy

and hold us captive as their slaves, nothing more than that.

They took our loved ones, our family, our return to our homeland, our ability to live

safely within our country.

The Houthi group took security and safety, the right to life, it took

the right to health and the right

to travel, it took all the necessities of life for us

It took from Yemenis the most important thing: their homeland.

Security, safety, our freedoms, everything. Life is no longer what it was

before 2015, or even before that.

The Houthi group took away my peace, took away my right to live in

my country, took away my right for my children to grow up in their homeland,

to study in Yemeni schools, and to live in a Yemeni environment.

It took away my dreams and the plans we made for the future, to

contribute to building our homeland. It took from us our brothers and siblings

who were killed, whether they were fighting against it or were

lured into fighting alongside it.

It took away my homeland first, and took away our right to return to

our country. It took my cousin from me a month

ago. He was killed defending the city that the Houthis came

to bring its people to their knees. It took away our right to live in our country

among our people, and took away all

our possessions and all our rights.
