SANAA -- A two-month cease-fire brokered by the United Nations in Yemen is set to come into force at 7 p.m. local time on Saturday night, the UN envoy for Yemen Hans Grundberg announced one hour prior to the agreed truce.
"As of tonight, all offensive ground, aerial and naval military operations should cease," Grundberg announced in a statement, adding that the success of this initiative will depend on the warring parties' commitment to implementing the truce agreement with its accompanying humanitarian measures.
