US and Saudi officials discuss progress towards ending Yemen war.

White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan spoke with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and discussed Iran and steps aimed at ending the war in Yemen. The call comes after Beijing recently brokered a deal to restore relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran, a process the United States was largely left out of. Saudi Arabia and Iran have said they would launch arrangements to reopen embassies and consulates within the two-month period stipulated in their deal brokered by China.
