Emanating from our desire to enter and distribute the largest amount of humanitarian and medical assistance, it was decided to announce a five-day humanitarian truce as of tomorrow, Sunday, the 10th of Shawwal, 1436 AH corresponding to 26/07/2015 AD at 11:59 pm during which the military actions by coalition forces will be stopped but in case that Houthi militias and forces loyal to them may launch military acts or movements in any area, they will be confronted by the coalition forces, with the continuation of the air and maritime blockage and inspections as well as aerial reconnaissance for any military acts or movements by Houthi militias and forces loyal to them. I hope that you, the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and the leaders of coalition countries to approve and support this step for the sake of our quest to achieve security and stability for our country, praising your support and your noble positions towards Yemen's leadership and people.
