Yemen: Saudis breach truce for 25 times

IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency

Tehran, Dec 25, IRNA -- Despite Yemeni forces commitment to ceasefire; Saudi aggressors have violated the truce agreement 25 times, spokesman for Yemen's Armed Forces said.

Speaking to Yemeni media 'Saba', Brigadier General Yahya Saree said that Saudi aggressors have targeted residential areas in Al Hudaydah for 8 times.

The Saudi mercenaries have violated truce regulations and used jet fighters, he added.

Breaching truce was not limited to Al Hudaydah and also happened in Saada, Hajjah and al-Bayda Provinces, he reiterated.

The United Nations Security Council enacted Resolution 2451 to support the Stockholm Agreement on deployment of a team in order to facilitate monitoring and implementing the Agreement and establishing truce in important Yemeni ports.

The resolution mainly focuses on sending essential commodities to the Yemeni people, supporting the Stockholm Agreement, assigning the Secretary-General of the United Nations to implement it and observing the ceasefire.

The fourth round of Yemen peace talks kicked off in Stockholm, Sweden on December 6 with the attendance of the UN special envoy Martin Griffith and the government representatives, and agreed to establish truce in Yemeni ports of al-Hudaydah, al-Salif and Ayn Issa.

Saudi Arabia and its regional allies attacked Yemen in March 2015 to bring back to power the deposed president of Yemen Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi.

Since then, the invaders have committed horrible war crimes against Yemeni civilians.
