Warring factions in Yemen, where forces in a Saudi-led Arab coalition are trying to restore President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi to power, agreed a renewable seven-day ceasefire under United Nations auspices that started on 15 December.

The missile, fired late on Monday night, was intercepted on a trajectory towards the Saudi city of Jizan, according to Saudi Arabia's state news agency SPA, quoting a coalition spokesman, in a Reuters report.
