Shells fall in Yemen ahead of ceasefire

A spokesman for the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen said a five-day humanitarian truce in the country came into effect at 11:00 p.m. local time Tuesday. Ahead of the ceasefire, the Houthis shelled Saudi border areas in Jizan province while Saudi-led coalition aircraft carried out air strikes in Sanaa. Local medical officials said the air strikes and fighting in Yemen killed at least 182 civilians in the past week. Saudi Arabia last week announced the truce to allow badly needed humanitarian aid to reach besieged civilians inside the conflict-battered country.
