Yemenis are invited by the Houthi rebels to visit the Galaxy Leader, a cargo ship that belonged to an Israeli businessman. They captured this ship last November and have since made it a site to their glory.
Visitors hold up their phones to film the crossing, while chewing qat, a euphoric plant widely consumed in the poorest country on the Arabian Peninsula. “It is an honor and a pride for the Yemeni people and a proof of support for our Palestinian brothers in Gaza,” says a Houthi fighter, Abu Imad.
