Aden: Warring factions in Yemen (click here) are preparing to observe a week-long truce from December 15 while UN-mediated peace talks take place in Switzerland, Yemen’s foreign minister said Tuesday.
“An agreement on a ceasefire between the government and the putschists should enter into force on December 15 with the start of negotiations,” Abdul Malak Al Mekhlafi said.
A source in the cabinet of Yemen’s President Abd Rabbo Mansour Hadi said the truce would last seven days, as specified in a letter sent by Hadi to the UN Security Council.
“I informed the coalition’s leadership that we intend to start a ceasefire for 7 days, from December 15th to 21st, in conjunction with the consultations,” Hadi said in a letter to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.
“It will be renewed automatically in case of compliance from the other side,” Hadi said.
