TEHRAN, December 15 - The Saudi-led coalition, despite the agreement in the Yemeni peace talks in Stockholm, has intensified its airstrikes, missiles and artillery attacks in Yemen, killing several civilians.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - According to Yemen News Agency (SABA), the attacks on Friday have been carried out with United States support.
The warplanes of US-backed Saudi-led aggression coalition on Friday launched three airstrikes on Hudaydah province, a security official said.
More than 70 percent of Yemen’s imports used to pass through the docks of Hudaydah.
The artillery and rocketry forces of the mercenaries of Saudi-led coalition on Friday shelled several border districts in Saada province, the official said.
The shelling targeted citizens’ farms in Ghaferah area of Dhaher district and caused damage among citizens’ properties, he said.
Also a military official told Saba, the artillery force of mercenaries of the Saudi-led aggression coalition on Friday shelled areas in the western coast.
On December 13, 2018, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement and the country’s former Saudi-backed government have reached an agreement on a ceasefire in the Red Sea port city of Hudaydah.
The UN chief made the announcement shortly after the delegations of Yemeni warring parties agreed that the world body play a “leading role” at the vital port, which is currently controlled by the Houthis.
The new round of peace talks aimed at ending nearly four years of a brutal Saudi-led war on its southern neighbor came to a close in Sweden.
Despite nearly four years of military aggression, and the use of advanced American weaponry, and full military and logistic support from Washington, Saudi Arabia and its allies have not been successful militarily.
