The first commercial flight in seven years left the international airport of Yemen’s capital of Sanaa for Jordan on Monday, Yemeni media reported.
A plane of the national airline Yemenia took off from Sanaa International Airport to the Jordanian capital Amman in its first commercial flight after 7 years, Yemeni broadcaster Almasirah reported.
On April 1, a two-month ceasefire under the auspices of the United Nations began in Yemen, supported by all parties to the conflict, including the Ansar Allah movement, also known as the Houthis. As part of the truce, commercial flights from Sanaa International Airport to Egypt were expected to resume on April 8, but the flight was canceled.
The conflict between the Yemeni government forces and the Houthis has been going on since 2014.
