This comes more than two and a half months after the expiration of the UN truce that went on for six months but was not renewed due to the coalition's failure to fulfill its terms.

One civilian has been martyred and others have been wounded as the Saudi coalition targeted a border area in Saada region on Friday. 

Yemeni Al-Masirah channel confirmed that the Saudi coalition struck Al-Raqu, west of Yemen, via artillery shelling, causing the death of 1 individual and the injury of 12 others, among which are African migrants.

This comes more than two and half months after the expiration of the UN-brokered truce in Yemen that went on for six months but was not renewed due to the coalition's failure to fulfill its terms.

Back in October, Sanaa government announced that negotiations attempting to extend the truce have reached a dead end - pointing blame at the Saudi coalition for it. 

In a separate but relevant context, the government of Sanaa' set conditions to pay government employees and officials their salaries from oil and gas revenues in regions under the control of government forces.

The Head of the Supreme Political Council of Yemen Mahdi Al-Mashat stated on Thursday that a truce cannot exist if the other party does not meet the needs of the Yemeni people, which include paying salaries and ending the siege on ports and airports. 

"There are many points of contention, the most important of which is fully lifting the blockade and aerial embargo imposed on the Sanaa airport and Al-Hudaydah port," sources said.
