RIYADH, Oct. 29 (Xinhua)-- Saudi-led coalition in Yemen confirmed Sunday its full commitment to the United Nations' rules in its military operations in Yemen, Saudi Press Agency reported.

The confirmation made during a meeting of Foreign Ministers and Chiefs of the General Staff of the Member States of the Coalition that has been engaged in a war in Yemen for more than two years.

The meeting confirmed that the military operations were launched upon a request by the elected Yemeni government against rebels.

The attendees accused Iran of supporting the militias in its brutal activities against innocent civilians and instability in Yemen.

The participants also agreed to continue to provide humanitarian aids to Yemenis to help them deal with their devastating living conditions.

The war that started in March 2015 shows no signs of ending, especially after the failure of talks between Yemeni political parties.
