The documents hold information regarding Qatar’s relationship with the Houthi militias starting from 2000 to 2013. They shed light on what went on in Yemen's Saada, including Qatar, Iran and Hezbollah intrusions, and Doha’s financial support for the Houthis which were said to be put towards developments in Saada.

The leaked documents also refer to Qatar’s mediation in releasing a large number of Houthi detainees in Saleh's prisons.

Yemeni politician Mohammed al-Walas claims he is in possession of those documents. Quoting Walas, the Asharq al-Awsat article noted that Qatar has been supporting the Houthis in secret four years before the wars in Saada began.

The initial support was then solidified financially. It is estimated that Qatar has supplied $100,000 worth of finances which was given to Houthi leader Yahya Qasim Awada.
