U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Saturday expressed concern over the violent clashes in Yemen's Aden and urged the parties to cease hostilities.

In a statement, Guterres called on the parties in the conflict "to engage in an inclusive dialogue to resolve their differences and address the legitimate concerns of all Yemenis."
