UN envoy: Announcement of new government bad for Yemenis

The U.N.'s special envoy for Yemen says an announcement by the Houthi rebels and allies from the ousted president's party to unilaterally declare the formation of a new government in Sanaa is an obstacle to the peace process.


Former president Ali Abdullah Saleh's General People's Congress and Ansar Allah, the political arm of the Shiite rebels known as Houthis, announced the agreement Monday.
