Yemen: Ceasefires
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what recent assessment he has made of the viability of the ceasefire agreement in Yemen, and if he will make a statement.
- Answer
-
Since it came into effect in Hodeidah on 18 December, the fragile ceasefire has continued to hold and there has been a general de-escalation by both sides around the city. We are aware of reports of frontline incidents and skirmishing but these remain low. We urge all parties to support and facilitate the UN's efforts and to implement the agreements reached during the Stockholm talks.
