Sana’a — A new report has revealed that Yemeni women have endured more than 5,600 documented violations during ten years of ongoing conflict, underscoring the devastating toll of war on the country’s most vulnerable population.

The violations include arbitrary detention, enforced disappearances, physical assaults, and restrictions on freedom of movement, with women often targeted for their social roles, activism, or humanitarian work. Rights groups stress that these abuses reflect a systematic pattern of intimidation and violence that has left women bearing the brunt of Yemen’s humanitarian crisis.

Advocates warn that the decade-long conflict has not only stripped women of basic protections but also eroded opportunities for education, employment, and political participation. Many survivors face stigma and lack access to justice, while perpetrators continue to act with impunity.

Human rights organizations are calling on all parties to the conflict to respect international humanitarian law and ensure accountability for crimes committed against women. They emphasize that protecting women’s rights is essential to achieving lasting peace and rebuilding Yemen’s fractured society.

The report concludes that without urgent international pressure and concrete measures to safeguard women, the cycle of abuse will persist, deepening Yemen’s humanitarian tragedy.
