The joint Yemeni forces loyal to the internationally recognized government announced today, Friday, that their withdrawal from the areas east and south of the city of Hodeidah, western Yemen, came in light of the redeployment plan specified in the Stockholm Agreement, which the government and the Ansar Allah group (Houthis) reached in late 2018.

Cairo – Sputnik. The joint forces said in a statement, published on the website of the “December 2” agency of the National Resistance operating within the strength of those forces stationed on the western coast of Yemen, that they “implemented the decision to evacuate the areas governed by the Sweden agreement, because those areas are governed by an international agreement that keeps them demilitarized and safe areas for civilians who He signed the Sweden agreement under the pretext of protecting and securing them.”

The joint forces said that they “saw the mistake of being trapped in defensive barricades, forbidden by war, by an international decision, while the various fronts require support in all forms, including opening other fronts that stop the Houthis on their own.”
