SANAA, Yemen — Yemeni security officials and eyewitnesses say that fighting has erupted in the key port city of Hodeida, the first significant clashes since warring sides agreed to a U.N.-brokered cease-fire deal in December.
They say the combat began overnight into Sunday, leaving fires burning on the main front lines in the city’s east and south, while exchanges of artillery fire shook the beleaguered city. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity as they weren’t authorized to brief journalists, while witnesses did so for fear of their safety.
The fighting comes days after the internationally recognized Yemeni government, along with allies Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, accused the Houthi rebel foes of breaking the cease-fire and refusing to withdraw their forces from the city in line with the December agreement.
Good! This will keep 'humanitarian' supplies from reaching the people and the world will have fewer Yemeni's to bother with!

Senate set to challenge Trump on Yemen, againA bipartisan effort to rein in U.S. support for the war in Yemen will come to the Senate floor as soon as next week, setting up President Donald Trump for a likely second veto fight in his presidency Putin is SO happy! yeah that's a veto that doesn't look bad at all. 'I'm vetoing this because I think we should continue aiding and abetting a humanitarian catasrophe just because the saudis are afraid of Iran'. 👍 yeah buddy that's a veto to be proud of. Tulsi2020 FYI 👇 Supporting the war in Yemen means starving babies to death. So I guess it's OK for the anti- abortionist Republicans to worry about killing babies as long as they're someone elses not American!
