SANA, Yemen — A senior official on Friday accused northern rebels of violating a cease-fire agreement hours after it took effect, killing a soldier and wounding another in an attack on a police station.
But government authorities and rebel leaders both insisted the truce deal still holds, despite minor flare ups in fighting between the sides.
After six years of war, Yemen has come under global pressure to end the conflict so as to free up resources to confront a separate threat from an al-Qaeda offshoot that established a base of operations in the country a year ago.
