Hammadi, 25, was arrested in February 2021 in Sanaa while on her way to a photo shoot.
She was later sentenced to five years in prison on charges of prostitution, drug use and fornication, accusations her lawyer and human rights organisations described as fabricated and intended to suppress women’s freedoms.
Her lawyer, Khaled al-Kamal, said Hammadi was released on Saturday from the central prison in the capital Sanaa. He added that she suffered from various illnesses and her health deteriorated during her time in prison.
Rights groups have criticised reported that the high-profile model had tried to take her own life in 2021.
