"He was apprehended for recruiting Syrian youths to send them to fight for terrorist organizations in Syria."

Isn't that exactly what Nasrallah and Hezbollah are doing? The double standards are nauseating ..

This Houthian should be dedicating his efforts to saving the seagulls and the rhinos instead of fooling around with ridiculous things.
