| UN plane to evacuate wounded Huthi rebels in Yemen: coalition |
| 2018-12-03 |
| [JOURNALDUCAMEROUN] A UN plane will evacuate 50 maimed Huthi snuffies from Yemen’s rebel-held capital Sanaa on Monday as a "confidence building measure" ahead of planned peace talks in Sweden, a Saudi-led military coalition said. "A UN chartered plane will arrive at Sanaa international airport Monday to evacuate 50 maimed combatants... three Yemeni doctors and a UN doctor, from Sanaa to Muscat," a coalition front man said in a statement carried by the official Saudi Press Agency. The fate of maimed rebels had been a stumbling block to the start of a previous round of aborted peace talks in September. The coalition agreed to facilitate the medical evacuations at the request of UN envoy Martin Griffiths for "humanitarian reasons" and as a "confidence building measure", the front man added. Houthis on Thursday said they will attend UN-brokered peace talks in Sweden this week if guarantees to ensure they can leave home and return back are maintained. |
