11:35 am
celebrated as a hero. many look like teenagers. they're all the children and who the power structure is the role of ponds in a chest game. they are cannon fodder for the cities. they are really zealous fighters. a lot of them are recruited to enticement not to intimidation. i need to start dressing and black. the color, the who sees have ordered women to where i'm told that's the only way i'll be allowed to watch the friday rally. the demonstration has become a weekly display of the who sees power more than a 1000000 men are gathering to vince or hatred of the west. israel and jews. women are not allowed. they've made an exception for me. almost every one carries the west. nevertheless, they all have to be searched even young

11:40 am
the transitional governments that requested that intervention. but in 2023, the warring parties, saudi arabia and iran were suddenly shaking hands the saudis put offers of peace and significant compromises on the table. they were hoping to appease the who's ease by now the most powerful force in yemen. meanwhile, political opposition to the who sees was fragmented. with many, many officials based outside of the country. people had begun to call them the hotel government. losing saudi support would be a body blow, it's one of the saudis have stopped intervening, that there were no complaints and push back on the who these people are starting to speak up against them. and i think garza was just the perfect opportunity for the who would fees it brings back to the issue of foreign aggression for an intervention. since the israel goes a war began the who's these have had success, it's in the red sea. the galaxy leader is one of their major trophies

11:42 am
israel in germany and britain. i mean, the fact that the who's he's managed to attack so many ships is thanks to its military partner. iran. it's sense the group court and it's missile components and drones. they have received a mentorship in a way that allowed them to transform themselves from, you know, what could be seen as a rag tag militia and the caves into this big militia that everyone is interested in. back on land. i'm told that some of the galaxy leaders crew are still on board to ship. they've been held hostage for months. our next destination is one of the poorest parts of the country. 5 hours drawn from santa. after nearly 10 years of war, the country is suffering from one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world.

11:45 am
we learned about the threats made against you and stuff, and humanitarian workers. and of kidnappings. we hear that the who sees often handed 8 supplies to their own followers rather than to those most in need. but there's an entire system of a diversion that the who these have put in place from 2017 onwards. we kept on seeing video footage of military members who the mission members being photographed with packages from the world food program. we've seen ambulances from the w. h o caring for the militia members. and by controlling where the aid goes, they tried to port to portray themselves as legitimate actors with the blessings of the international community. a few kilometers away, there's a clinic for malnourished children, run my agency,

11:47 am
allow me live with indescribable pain, pain, fear, and grief. they are the consequences of war and famine. the majority of the country is experiencing hunger like a dr. letting a doctors tell us that some of the children simply can't be saved. the women were among the 1st victims after the who's these came to power, travel bands, morality, police and gender segregation. the movement is constantly coming up with new ways to restrict women's freedom of movement. to meet women here and ask them to share their stories, we put their lives in danger. so instead i need a young any woman in exile in jordan use right on there. sherry is 21.
