Army spokesman accuses Houthis of mutilating soldiers’ bodies and seeks independent inquiry
Yemeni armed forces spokesman Majed al-Nuzaili said soldiers’ bodies received through the International Committee of the Red Cross had been mutilated. He said the military hospital in Taiz had documented the alleged abuse and called for an independent UN and human rights investigation. This is an accusation by a party to the conflict; monitoring found no independent ICRC confirmation or Houthi response specific to this case. Publication time does not establish when the soldiers died or their bodies were received.
