Official media affiliated with the terrorist Houthi militia, Iran's arm in Yemen, said that the head of its so-called political council, Mahdi Al-Mashat, inaugurated today, Sunday, projects worth seven billion riyals dedicated to caring for the families of the martyrs.
According to the militia media, Al-Mashat, during the inauguration, which was in a closed room, claimed that this large amount is for the projects of the Authority for the Care of Martyrs' Families during the blessed month of Ramadan, which confirms the fact that the families of the martyrs are just an excuse to loot this amount from the state treasury, or through illegal royalties which increases during the month of Ramadan under several names, most notably zakat and five.
Observers believe that the militias' announcement to launch fake projects with this amount means that there is a levies campaign that their areas of control will witness during the holy month under the name of supporting the "martyrs' families" projects, pointing out that what confirms the fakeness of this launch is the lack of a list of projects and their costs.
It is unlikely that the families of the war victims will benefit from this amount, especially since the militias have been pushing their fighters to the fronts during the confrontations without concern for their fate, which is still unknown to hundreds of their families until now.
