Saudi-led coalition involved in a war in Yemen accused on Sunday the Houthis militia in Yemen of violating the cease-fire, Al Akhbariya local TV reported.

The coalition spokesperson Turki Al Malki said that the militia was involved in 241 violations in the last 48 hours, including aggressive military operations.

Meanwhile, the spokesperson asserted that the coalition and the Yemeni army would continue with the cease-fire and self-restraint.

The coalition announced last week a two-week cease-fire from April 9 as part of a call by UN Special Envoy to Yemen Martin Griffiths for warring parties to lay down their weapons.
