The British Ambassador to Yemen, Michael Aaron, described the Houthi militia's targeting of a fuel station in the city of Marib, and dozens of deaths and injuries, as a horrific act.
Aron renewed, in a tweet on his Twitter account, the Houthi militia's call to stop its attack on Marib Governorate.
The British ambassador tweeted: "The Houthis must stop their attack in Marib, and engage seriously with the United Nations. He considered that an agreement on a nationwide ceasefire would prevent such tragic losses and allow humanitarian action."
On Saturday night, the Houthi militia bombed Marib with a ballistic missile, killing 17, including a girl, and wounding 5 others, all of whom were civilians.
