Yemenis: Warplanes strike military sites in capital

The raids hit army bases on a mountain overlooking the city, and the force of the explosions shook buildings as it rippled through several city neighborhoods, they said. Sanaa is controlled by the Iran-allied Houthi movement, which still holds vast swathes of the country despite a nearly 20-month military campaign by the Saudi-led alliance aimed at restoring Yemen's exiled government. A 48-hour ceasefire announced by Saudi Arabia which largely failed to halt nationwide combat is set to expire at noon on Monday. The violence casts into doubt a UN peace proposal for the Houthis to quit main cities and Yemen's warring factions to form a national unity government.
