Recent protests by Zaidi Shiites, who are a minority in mainly Sunni Yemen forming the majority in the northern highlands including the Sanaa region, has raised fears of new violence in Yemen, which already faces Al-Qaeda insurgency and a campaign for renewed independence for the south.

A high-ranking official in Yemen’s Ansarallah said continuation of aggressions in Al Hudaydah and breach of truce agreement shows that Saudi coalition is to start a new war in Yemen.

According to the Yemeni media ‘Al-Masirah’, Salim Meghles stressed the fact that Ansarallah is complying with Stockholm peace agreement.

If Saudi coalition continues aggressions in Al-Hudaydah, Yemenis will take necessary position, he added.

The United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 2451 to support the Stockholm Agreement on deployment of a team in order to facilitate monitoring and implementing the Agreement and establishing truce in important Yemeni ports.

The resolution mainly focuses on sending essential commodities to the Yemeni people, supporting the Stockholm Agreement, assigning the Secretary-General of the United Nations to implement it and observing the ceasefire.

The fourth round of Yemen peace talks kicked off in Stockholm, Sweden on December 6 with the attendance of the UN special envoy Martin Griffith and the government representatives. It agreed to establish truce in Yemeni ports of al-Hudaydah, al-Salif and Ayn Issa.

Saudi regime and its regional allies attacked Yemen in March 2015 to bring back to power the deposed president of Yemen Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi.

Since then, the invaders have committed horrible war crimes against Yemeni civilians.
