SANAA, Yemen, Sept. 21 (UPI) -- The Sunni-led Yemeni government and Shiite Houthi rebels signed a U.N.-brokered peace agreement, putting a halt to deadly fighting on Sunday.
As part of the agreement, which came hours after Yemeni Prime Minister Mohammed Saleh Basindwa resigned, a new government will be established and rebels will nominate a new prime minister.
