A two-week ceasefire in Yemen has been called by the Saudi-lead coalition.

This comes at a crucial time in the battle against COVID-19. The Kingdom announced its commitment towards stabilizing the region and is offering donations to the humanitarian needs in Yemen, along with a sum towards fighting the deadly virus.

Early this morning on Twitter, Prince Khalid bin Salman, Saudi’s Deputy Minister of Defense announced a $500 million contribution to an international humanitarian plan in Yemen as well as $25 million to help fight the COVID-19 pandemic.
