The United Nations Security Council has unanimously adopted a resolution that demands that Houthi rebels immediately relinquish control of Yemen's government.
But the resolution approved at an emergency council meeting on Sunday evening does not act under Chapter 7 of the UN Charter, which would allow it to be militarily enforced.
The resolution demands that the Houthi rebels "immediately and unconditionally" withdraw forces from government institutions.
The resolution also demands that the Houthis release President Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi and his cabinet from house arrest and engage "in good faith" in UN-led peace talks.
The Houthis, who have controlled the capital since September last year, dissolved parliament on February 6 and replaced the president with Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, a cousin of Houthi leader, Abdel-Malik al-Houthi.
