The Qatari newspaper Al-Araby Al-Jadeed reported that the Houthis in Yemen are concerned about a potential "booby-traped beepers"-style attack similar to the one carried out against Hezbollah in September last year. According to the report, the group has confiscated all signal-transmitting equipment and banned the use of numerous apps and security cameras. Houthi leaders have reportedly reverted to outdated devices and technologies that they last used over a decade ago.
