LONDON: The Coalition to Restore Legitimacy in Yemen said on Thursday it was committed to stopping military operations inside Yemen in response to a request from the secretary-general of the Gulf Cooperation Council, state TV reported.

The coalition said its air forces did not carry out any combat operations inside Yemen, adding it was taking all steps to make the cessation of military operations a success and to make comprehensive peace.

Meanwhile, UK ambassador to Yemen Richard Oppenheim said Britain welcomed the GCC- led talks and called on Yemeni parties to seize the chance for peace.

It's time for all Yemeni parties to seize the chance for peace in Yemen. @OSE_Yemen consultations have full UK support. We welcome other positive developments: Coalition and Houthi ceasefire proposals and @GCC led Yemeni-Yemeni dialogue. There is no space for missed opportunities https://t.co/xmgyRG5IR0
