Yemen’s rival factions have entered U.N.-brokered peace talks in Switzerland as a seven-day ceasefire takes effect. The truce comes amid reports U.S.-backed, Saudi-led airstrikes killed 19 Yemeni civilians in their homes and at a market over the weekend. About half of the nearly 6,000 people killed in Yemen’s conflict are civilians, including more than 600 children.
