A week after the image was published, and amid the international furor over the brutal killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in Saudi Arabia's consulate in Istanbul, US Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called on the participants in Yemen's 3-year civil war to agree to a ceasefire "in the next 30 days". ~From journalist Hakim Almasmari in Sanaa.
