By Mohamed Ghobari SANAA (Reuters) - A truce aimed at ending more than a year of war in Yemen began on Saturday, although residents said fighting was still going on in parts of the country. The 48-hour ceasefire by the Saudi-led military coalition raised hopes of an end to a humanitarian crisis caused by a war that has drawn in regional foes Iran and Saudi Arabia. The truce seemed to be largely holding up despite gun battles in the Western city of Taiz and air strikes by the Saudi-led coalition reported by residents in villages east of the capital Sanaa.
