Saudi Arabia Continues Truce Violations in Yemen

Alwaght- The Saudi aggression’s warplanes and warships continued to breach the Yemen ceasefire on Saturday in the provinces of Hodeidah, Taiz and Mareb, a military official said.

The official explained that the battleships of the Saudi aggression opened fire on the coastal city of Mocha in Taiz, while the surveillance planes continued flying in the sky of Thubab district and the western coast of Taiz.

The aggression war jets continued violations of the ceasefire, flying in the skies of Hodeidah, Mareb and Taiz, he added.

Elsewhere, Yemeni National delegation to UN-brokered peace talks in Kuwait offered its vision of political and security settlement in the war-torn country, revolutionary movement, Ansarullah said.

Ansarullah spokesman, Mohamamd Abdelsalam, said that the national delegation, which includes Ansarullah and the General People's Congress (GPC), said that the delegation handed over the draft which includes the vision to the United Nations.

Abdelsalam stressed meanwhile that the national delegation is committed to peaceful talks in a bid to halt the Saudi-led aggression and to lift the siege.

For his part, delegation member, Hamza al-Houthi warned against the continuous violations of ceasefire, committed by the Saudi-led coalition.

"The national delegation has the right to take the appropriate decision in case the violations go on," al-Houthi said, according to al-Massirah Yemeni TV.

Meanwhile, warring sides of the conflict in Yemen have begun face-to-face negotiations for the first time since an ongoing round of talks started under the auspices of the United Nations in Kuwait.

Charbel Raji, the spokesman for UN envoy to Yemen Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed, said on Saturday that direct meetings had already started between representatives of Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement and those of the resigned president, Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi.

“All delegations are present. Key issues will be addressed,” said Raji of the talks which are being mediated by Ould Cheikh Ahmed in Kuwait City.

The key issues Raji mentioned include the withdrawal of armed groups, a handover of heavy weapons, the resumption of a political transition and the release of prisoners.

The negotiations, which started on April 21, have only seen delegations submitting their own proposals to Ould in separate meetings they have held with the UN envoy.

Yemen has been since March 26, 2015 under brutal aggression by Saudi-led coalition.

Over 9,500 Yemeni have been killed in the attack, with the vast majority of them being innocent civilians including women and children.

Riyadh launched the attack on Yemen in a bid to restore power to fugitive president Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi who is a close ally to Saudi Arabia.
