After talks with French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault in Paris, Minister Ahmed called on all political leaders and their supporters to refrain from further endangering peace and security.

The Saudi-led Arab coalition was accused of an airstrike that killed 140 mourners at a funeral in Sanaa last week. Two days later, the Houthi movement launched a ballistic missile deep into Saudi Arabia and may have also fired on a US warship. The Arab coalition denied the accusation and announced they would work with US investigators on an investigation into the airstrike.
