What happened
A girl lost a foot in a mine explosion in Hodeidah city in late January 2019. Her grandmother said she was returning on a donkey carrying water containers when the animal stepped on the mine.
The report calls the twelve-year-old “Fatima”. Human Rights Watch documented the incident in its investigation of Houthi mining on the western coast. Attribution relies on the investigation and accounts of mining in the area, not observation of the person who planted this specific mine.
