Yemen Griffiths News Today : Breaking News, Live Updates & Top Stories | Vimarsana

Since taking office in January, the Biden administration has sought to bring an end to Yemen’s conflict by withdrawing support for offensive operations by the Saudi-led coalition that is battling Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi rebels. Riyadh responded by announcing a peace planin March, which would see blockades on the country lifted and a UN-supervised ceasefire between the Saudi-backed government and the Houthis, who control the capital Sanaa and much of the north. This week’s negotiations involving Mr Griffiths and Mr Lenderking were aimed at advancing that ceasefire, but are understood to have been complicated by the Houthi assault on gas-rich Marib, the government’s last northern stronghold.
