- “Torture and the Yemen Civil War” (April 2025) identifies instances of torture and the entities that have failed to prevent and punish it throughout the ongoing civil war.
- "Gender Based Violence and the Yemen Civil War" (April 2024) concerns the failure of Yemen Civil War actors to refrain from engaging in—as well as to prevent, punish and investigate instances of—gender-based violence.
- “The Yemen Civil War's Toll on Children" (June 2023) documents the international humanitarian law and human rights law violations during the conflict related to the children of Yemen.
- "Cultural Property: Building the Case for Prosecuting the Destruction of Cultural Property in Yemen" (Jan. 2023) puts forth the legal framework for prosecuting perpetrators of attacks on Yemen's centuries-old cultural property and UNESCO World Heritage Sites during the Yemen Conflict.
- “Starvation: Building the Case for Prosecuting Starvation Crimes in Yemen" (April 2021) aims to assist prosecutors in bringing accountability to the perpetrators that used starvation as a method of warfare in Yemen.
