The withdrawal of armed forces from the Yemeni port of Hodeidah, a vital aid route caught up in the fighting, will happen "within days," UN Yemen envoy Martin Griffiths said.
"The design of the withdrawal is first from the three ports, within days, then from the city," Griffiths told reporters, referring to the Yemeni ports of Hodeidah, Salif, and, Ras Isa.
The pullout, which will open a road cutting across Hodeida crucial to humanitarian aid delivery, "has been agreed by both sides", Griffiths said.
