Spokesman for Yemen's government Rajeh Badi
Riyadh (IINA) – Yemen’s government said on Saturday that peace talks due to be held on January 14 would most probably be postponed beyond that date, Arab News reported.
Spokesman for Yemen's government Rajeh Badi said the announcement by former President Ali Abdullah Saleh that he would not take part in the talks and the lack of Houthi commitment to carrying out their promises of releasing prisoners, were among the reasons behind the push for postponement.
Al-Ekhbariya TV channel reported that as many as 35 Houthi infiltrators were killed near the Saudi border town of Rabuah on Friday. It added that the Houthis were seen removing 35 of their comrades’ bodies from the area.
There were heavy clashes between the Yemeni Popular Resistance forces and Houthis near Taiz Province, according to Al-Ekhbariya. Arab coalition aircraft targeted militias in the region, causing heavy losses among terrorists.
It is noteworthy that Yemen's Foreign Ministry earlier denied reports that the Iranian Embassy in Sanaa was targeted by coalition forces. The ministry showed photos to prove that the mission's premises did not suffer any damage.
