The International Red Cross recently announced that Yemen’s Houthis unilaterally released 113 prisoners of war who were handed over to the Red Cross on May 26 in Sanaa, the Houthi-controlled capital of Yemen. Daphne Mare, head of the Red Cross mission in Yemen, expressed hope that this release would pave the way for more releases and provide comfort to families who have not yet been reunited with their loved ones held in captivity. This is the first prisoner release since April 2023 when about 800 individuals were released on both sides. However, many more individuals are still being held by opposing factions in the ongoing civil war in Yemen between the Iran-backed Houthis and the internationally recognized government, which has been ongoing for a decade and has resulted in the loss of over 370,000 lives and displacement of millions of people.
