One of the leaders of the Yemeni Huthis rejected a truce offer made by a coalition of Arab states led by Saudi Arabia, saying it would benefit only the rebels “Islamic state” and “Al Qaeda”. “The battle continues and the war is not over”, – quotes Reuters the statement Abdel Malek al-Houthi.

The truce began on Saturday at 23:59 local time. Arab coalition noted that during the five days of its forces will be ready to respond to possible violations of the truce by the rebels.
