Mutual accusations between the parties to the conflict in Yemen about violating the armistice

The Yemeni army, late on Sunday, accused the Houthi group of violating the humanitarian truce announced by the United Nations, for the second day in a row.

The accusation came in two statements issued by the media center of the joint forces on the western coast and the media center of the Al-Dhalea axis (both of which are affiliated with the army) and by a military source in Marib, while there was no immediate comment from the Houthis.

The media center of the Joint Forces on the West Coast said, in its statement, that the Houthi forces committed several violations of the truce, on Sunday evening, by firing machine guns in the Al-Barah axes (west of Taiz) and the Hays district (south of Hodeidah).

For its part, the media center of the Al-Dhalea axis stated that the Houthi group recorded about 10 violations, which were represented by shooting towards army positions, and bombing by drones on other sites in Al-Qash’a, Al-Thokhab sector, north of Al-Dhalea (south).

In this context, the spokesman for the "White Resistance" Amer Al-Humaiqani, who is in Marib, said on his Twitter account that the battles are continuing between the National Army and the Houthis on the fronts south of Marib, without giving details.

There was no immediate comment from the "Al-Houthi" on what was reported by the Yemeni army or the spokesman, but the group accused yesterday of what it called "the forces of aggression", in reference to the Saudi-led military coalition, of "continuing its violations of the armistice."

"The forces of aggression continue their violations and bombard the army and committee positions in Najran with a number of artillery shells, with reconnaissance aircraft flying," the Houthis said, according to the group's Al Masirah satellite channel.

And on Saturday evening, a humanitarian truce took effect in the country for two months under the auspices of the United Nations.

In a statement, UN envoy Hans Grundberg said that under the armistice, all offensive military operations by land, sea and air would stop.

This truce announcement was welcomed by both the government and the Houthi group, in addition to a wide international, international and Arab welcome.

Yemen has been witnessing for more than 7 years a continuous war between the pro-government forces backed by a military coalition led by the Saudi neighbor, and the Houthis, who have controlled several governorates, including the capital, Sanaa, since September 2014.
