Yemeni anger after Qatar's funding of sectarian manuals
Yemeni anger after Qatar's funding of sectarian manuals

Qatar Charity has announced a tender to print the new edition of the manual, following the sectarian dimension of Houthi militia modifications to the manual.




The Qatari tender came to help the Ministry of Education in the coup government headed by Yehya Al-Houthi, brother of the militia leader Abdul Malik Al-Houthi, in solving the problem of expenses of printing the school curriculum that was amended to be sectarian.

Qatar Charity - Yemen Office has offered a tender, called "Yemen Children Support Project for Printing Manuals," to print the curriculum that carries sectarian and ideological modifications made by the Houthis.




The Ministry of Education in Sana'a, which is controlled by the Houthis, issued a new edition of the manuals carrying fundamental changes in the contents, consistent with the doctrine of the Houthi group.

The Houthi changes to the manuals mainly included "Islamic education materials and civic education,"which included ideas imported from Iran.




The Yemeni government denounced the financing of Qatar Charitable Society for the project of printing the textbook for schools controlled by the Iranian-backed al-Houthi terrorist militia.

The Yemeni Ministry of Education said in a statement that the Iranian-backed terrorist Houthi militia has been distorting and changing public education curricula in Yemen since its coup, in line with its malign sectarian ideology.




The ministry condemned the funding of the Qatar Charity Association to print those poisonous and destructive curricula for the student's ideology, faith, patriotism, and future, stressing that these curricula establish intellectual, religious, and community extremism.

In its statement published by the official Yemeni News Agency, the ministry highlighted that "By adopting a sectarian curriculum printing project, Qatar Charity helps the Houthi terrorist militia poison the mind of a Yemeni student, and contributes to encroachment on education in Yemen by including false doctrinal slogans and ideas that create further sectarian conflict among the people of the one nation."
