If Houthis didn't try to shamelessly capitalize on every tragedy the coalition inflicts, it would be a lot easier to get the world/the west to take these crimes seriously. Here are some of the ways the Houthis' exploitation of civilian casualties harms the Yemeni people:
When you turn dead children into propaganda, you put the reality of their deaths up for debate. Houthis have no credibility, therefore these victims lose credibility. You rob their deaths of the recognition they are due by associating them with you.
This kind of propaganda makes it possible for the coalition to say that civcas reports are false, and possible for policymakers in the US and UK to believe the coalition (or at least pretend to).
