Head of U.N. Monitors Arrives in Yemen's Sanaa
The head of the U.N. team tasked with monitoring a fragile ceasefire in Yemen arrived in the rebel-held capital of Sanaa on Sunday.
Retired Dutch general Patrick Cammaert is heading a joint committee including members of the government and the Huthi rebels, in charge of monitoring a ceasefire in the port city of Hodeida.
He is making a stop in Sanaa before heading to Hodeida, a lifeline port city that serves as the entry point for the majority of imports to war-torn Yemen, a U.N. official said, after holding talks Saturday with Yemen government officials in Aden.
