UNMHA is concerned by bouts of troubling hostilities in the Hudaydah governorate over the last few weeks, including aerial strikes and artillery shelling in residential areas, that constitute violations of the Stockholm Agreement and have severely impacted the population.

HUDAYDAH, 18 January 2021 — The United Nations Mission to support the Hudaydah Agreement (UNMHA) has received disturbing reports of a significant increase in clashes in parts of the Hudaydah governorate in recent days, particularly in Hays and Durayhimi.

On 13 December 2018, the conflict parties agreed to the Stockholm Agreement, which included a ceasefire in Hudaydah – a crucial step to alleviate the suffering of the people of Yemen.
