Yemen: Fighting escalates in Hodeidah despite ceasefire call

CNN  

CNN — Violence in Yemen’s key port city of Hodeidah is at its worst in months, the United Nations humanitarian coordinator has warned, as a leader of the Houthi rebels vowed that his side would carry on fighting despite US calls for a ceasefire. “The uptick in violence is some of the fiercest fighting we’ve seen in months and months,” UN humanitarian coordinator in Yemen, Lise Grande, told CNN. A Houthi leader on Wednesday said the latest military escalation by the Saudi-led coalition was in line with an “American vision.” “Based on experience in the past, we know that this is an American style, they call for peace while they are preparing for a new military aggression,” Abdul Malik al-Houthi said in a speech broadcast on pro-Houthi al-Masirah TV. “The coalition distributed pamphlets two months ago warning people and their cars to stay clear of that road.” The coalition said in September that its targeting operations in Yemen resembled the “highest international standards” and pledged to investigate incidents involving civilian deaths reported on by CNN.
