Saudi Arabia on Friday strongly condemned the Houthi attack on UN personnel in Yemen.

 

The attack took place on Thursday in Hodeidah against the cease-fire monitors, after a truce deal came into force last month.

 

The Houthi militia “have violated their signed commitments in Stockholm and continue to flout international law and escalate their aggression against the Yemeni people,” Saudi Arabia’s Ambassador to the United States Prince Khalid bin Salman tweeted on Friday.

 

One round of small arms fire struck a UN-marked armored vehicle that was part of convoy carrying chief monitor Patrick Cammaert, the UN said.

 

The UN monitors arrived in Hodeida — the entry point for the bulk of Yemen’s imports — on Dec. 23. The UN Security Council this week agreed to expand the force to 75 monitors.
