ADEN, Jul 28 (NNN-YPA) – Yemen’s internationally-recognised government, declared yesterday that, 81 people were killed and 331 others injured, in sporadic attacks, carried out by the Houthi militia, since the beginning of the UN-brokered truce.
“The violations implemented by the Houthi militia during the truce period, that began on Apr 2, under the auspices of the United Nations, reached an average of 50 sporadic attacks a day,” the government said in a press statement.
Yemen’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ahmed Awad Bin Mubarak, confirmed his government’s commitment to all the truce provisions, accusing the Houthis of disobeying the truce agreement, as they continued their attacks in various areas.
Mubarak made the remarks, during his meeting with the UN Special Envoy to Yemen, Hans Grundberg, in the southern port city of Aden on Tuesday.
During the past days, the Houthi militia carried out a series of attacks against various areas, as Grundberg stepped up his effort to extend the Yemeni truce.
The truce in Yemen, first enforced on Apr 2, and renewed for another two months on Jun 2, will expire on Aug 2.– NNN-YPA
