The United States of America called on the Houthi militia to agree to a ceasefire and work to bring peace to Yemen.
"We are appalled by reports that the Houthis used a ballistic missile to destroy a fuel station in Ma'rib, which caused the killing and wounding of civilians," Acting US Ambassador to Yemen Kathy Westley said in a statement, Sunday evening.
"Accordingly, the Houthis then used a drone to attack an ambulance crew coming to help the wounded," she added.
Westley stressed the need for an end to this inhumane violence, and called on the Houthis to "agree to an immediate ceasefire and work for peace in Yemen."
