Aden – A suicide bomber killed at least four people Tuesday in Yemen’s southern port city of Aden.

The attacker detonated the explosives among a group of army recruits in the city.

The United Nations is sponsoring peace talks next week between the government and Houthis and urged them to make sure their cessation of hostilities holds in order to create a good environment for the negotiations.

A U.N. spokesman said Monday there were “pockets of violence” after the truce went into effect. Much of the reported fighting was in the city of Taiz.

More than 6,200 people have been killed in the Yemen conflict, and the U.N. says more than 80 percent of civilians are in desperate need of food and medical aid.
