Saudi warplanes Wednesday continued to pound the Yemeni provinces of Sana’a and Saada in violation of a UN-brokered ceasefire. There were no immediate reports of possible casualties.

On Tuesday, at least 40 civilians were killed as Saudi warplanes bombed Ta’iz province.

 

Earlier on Wednesday, the United Nations said Yemen’s peace talks will be adjourned until after the holy month of Ramadan, which ends next week.

UN Special Envoy to Yemen Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed said the warring sides of the conflict will resume talks in Kuwait City on July 15.

Saudi Arabia launched its military aggression against Yemen on March 26, 2015, in a bid to bring Yemen’s resigned president, Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, a staunch ally of Riyadh, back to power and crush the Houthi Ansarullah movement. More than 10,000 people have been killed in the conflict.
