Army spokesman calls UN to condemn coalition violations in Hodeidah

SANAA, Jan. 29 (YPA) – Yemen’s army spokesman Yahiya Sarie on Tuesday called on the UN envoy to Yemen Martin Griffiths to condemn the ongoing violations by the Saudi-led coalition and its militias in Hodeidah.

Brigadier Sarie confirmed that the killing of one of the members of the demining team by the coalition fire in Kilo 16 area in line of presence of the UN monitoring team is a clear violation in an attempt to seek to fail the UN-brokered cease-fire in Swede.

The spokesman called for the United Nations to carry the full responsibility to presser on the coalition states to stop the continuing violations in the province.
