The Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council and the Houthi rebel group have committed to implementing a nationwide ceasefire, lifting economic restrictions, and engaging in preparations to resume inclusive UN-led political negotiations, UN Special Envoy for Yemen Hans Grundberg said Saturday.

"The parties have taken a significant step. Their commitments are, first and foremost, an obligation to the Yemeni people to progress towards a future that meets the legitimate aspirations of all Yemenis," Grundberg said in a press statement.
