NY-SABA
Yemen has called for UN pressures on the Iran-backed Houthi militia to engage in a ceasefire without any preconditions to pave the way for a political process.

The Houthi militia have been waging a years-long war to expand into government-held territories, exacerbating bloodshed, humanitarian crisis and economic conditions in Yemen to unprecedented levels.
