DUBAI: The Saudi-led coalition said on Friday that four ships headed to Yemen’s HodeidahÌýhave been granted access to the port while seven other vessels were waiting for permission to enter.
Yemen's warring parties have confirmed their willingness to restart negotiations after a two-year hiatus, the UNÌýspecial envoy for Yemen said even as fighting raged along the country's west coast over a key port city.
Martin Griffiths told the UNÌýradio late on Thursday that he plans to bring the Houthis, and the country's internationally recognized government to the negotiating table within the next few weeks "at the very latest."
He said he hopes the UNÌýSecurity Council will come up with a plan next week and present it to the Yemenis.
