Yemeni educational expert Mohammed Naj Khamash died in a Houthi-run detention facility, with officials claiming it was a result of torture. Khamash was abducted by the Houthis in June during a crackdown on various organizations. The Yemeni government's Ministry of Human Rights office disputes the Houthi claim that Khamash died of natural causes, stating that he was brutally tortured. Khamash's death is part of a pattern of mistreatment and deprivation of medical care in Houthi detention facilities.
