Yemen's president has called on citizens to join the country's armed forces while offering amnesty to members of the Iran-backed Houthi rebel movement who choose to defect, according to Al Jazeera.

The appeal comes as Yemen's internationally recognized government continues its long-running conflict with the Houthis, who control large parts of the country including the capital, Sanaa.

The report did not detail the specific terms of the amnesty offer or how many defections, if any, have resulted from similar past appeals.

The initiative reflects ongoing efforts by Yemen's government to bolster its military ranks and weaken Houthi cohesion amid a conflict that has persisted for years.
