A new report reveals that Yemen's Houthis are recruiting prisoners from al-Qaeda and ISIS, offering salaries of around $260, weapons, and protection. The group frames the move with religious rhetoric about a "common enemy" to justify the alliance.
The report follows earlier disclosures by Yemen about the Houthis’ notorious female unit, the Zainabiyat, accused of abducting and torturing women while also running espionage and smuggling networks.
