Mfululizo wa milipuko ya mabomu imeendelea kurushwa katika misikiti ya Shia na Ofisi zilizopo katika la jimbo la Yemen, Sanaa, na kusababisha vifo vya watu 30.

Mashambulizi hayo ya mabomu yamewalenga waumini wa Shia waliokuwa katika ibada yao ya jioni, na Ofisi ambayo yanatumiwa na kikundi cha waasi wa Houthi.

Wanamgambo wa Islamic State wamekiri kuhusika na milipuko hiyo na kudai kuwa ni hatua yao ya kulipa kisasi dhidi ya Houthi, walioteka jimbo la Yemen na milki zake.

Kwa sasa mazungumzo yanaendelea huko Geneva kati ya waasi na Serikali,huku maofisa wa umoja wa mataifa wakijaribu kusuluhisha pande hizo mbili ili kusitisha mapigano.

The rebel delegate said the stalled talks would continue until at least Friday, adding: "We hope these preliminary talks will end up in some kind of accord... a transition that will hopefully lead to free, fair and transparent elections."
He accused the Saudis of using "nitrogen bombs and other horrible arms" to "massacre women and children" and said Al-Qaeda in Yemen was "exploiting the situation and using the aggression to extend its influence over the region."
Yaser al-Awadi, another member of the rebel delegation, said the "Yemen war has become an economic investment for Britain, France and the United States."
"Their arms factories are working full-time for two months to furnish and supply arms," he said.
"Our women and children are being used as guinea pigs to test new arms," Awadi said at the chaotic press conference.
