Abobaker Al Faqeeh Reports on Child Soldiers & Education
Abobaker Al Faqeeh has worked for both local and international media outlets, including the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. In a recent piece, he exposed how both the Houthis and the Saudi-led coalition have been actively recruiting and using child soldiers in the Yemen conflict. In this episode, he shares more about the intentional strategies that are being used by Yemen’s warring parties to target children and mobilize them on to the battlefield. He also highlights the factors that make children vulnerable to this recruitment and the importance of educational opportunities, which can decrease the vulnerability of children to recruitment by the warring parties.
