Nothing gets passed Emirates 24/7
Ahead of the planned ceasefire, heavy fighting erupted between Al Houthis and the government forces.

The rebel fighters stepped up their battle in Taiz, Marib, Shabwa and Lahj in a bid to regain control before the truce is in place, reported ‘Al Bayan’.

As per an earlier agreement between Al Houthis and the government forces, a ceasefire would come into effect at midnight today [April 10], a week before the scheduled peace talks.

President Hadi said he will go ahead with the scheduled talks in Kuwait on the 18th of this month and work towards stopping the war and achieving peace as per the UN resolution.
