Houthis Depart Saudi Arabia Following Ceasefire Talks

Houthi negotiators have left Saudi Arabia after a five-day round of talks aimed at reaching a potential agreement to end the conflict in Yemen. Progress has been made on key issues, including a timeline for foreign troop withdrawal and payment of public wages. The talks focused on reopening Houthi-controlled ports and Sanaa airport, rebuilding efforts, and establishing a timeline for foreign forces to leave Yemen. An agreement would allow the United Nations to restart broader political peace negotiations involving other parties to the conflict. The United States has been pressuring Saudi Arabia to end its involvement in the war.
