Local Editor

The Yemeni Saba news agency quoted an anonymous official with Yemen’s Supreme Political Council who welcomed any international effort towards a political and negotiating solution in his country.

"We welcome any international stance to support a political and negotiating solution in Yemen that preserves sovereignty and territories of the country, including the road map presented by the United Nations and the former US Secretary of State," the official said in a statement.

According to Saba the official also reaffirmed Yemen’s readiness to negotiate once the brutal Saudi bombardment of Yemen is halted and Riyadh’s sea and naval blockade is lifted.

Saudi Arabia has been leading a destructive military campaign against Yemen since March 2015 to reinstate former president Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi.

The campaign has killed over 12,000 people, devastating the country’s infrastructure.
