Yemen truce timelines pushed back: UN

The United Nations envoy for Yemen said Monday the expected timeline for a truce in the flashpoint city of Hodeida and a prisoner swap between warring parties has been pushed back. Martin Griffiths hosted hard-won peace talks between the Saudi-backed Yemeni government and rival Iran-aligned Huthi rebels in Sweden last month. The agreement stipulates a full ceasefire, followed by the withdrawal of rival forces from the city.
