Tim Lenderking will hold talks aimed at reaching a ceasefire in the six-year conflict in Yemen.
The United States special envoy for Yemen, Tim Lenderking, will travel to Saudi Arabia and Oman on Tuesday for talks with senior government officials aimed at reaching a ceasefire in Yemen, the US State Department has said. The Iran-aligned Houthis have been battling a Saudi Arabia-led military coalition for more than six years in a war that has killed tens of thousands of people and pushed Yemen to the brink of famine. The coalition’s naval and air blockade has exacerbated the crisis.More Related News
