SANAA, Nov 21, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – UN envoy Martin Griffiths arrived in the
rebel-held Yemeni capital on Wednesday for crunch talks on averting all-out
fighting for the lifeline port of Hodeida and widespread famine.
Griffiths did not comment to waiting reporters on his arrival at Sanaa
International Airport, an AFP photographer reported.
The envoy — whose last effort to kickstart peace talks collapsed
acrimoniously in Switzerland in September — is trying to get the Huthi
Shiite rebels and the Saudi-backed government back to the negotiating table
in Sweden by the end of the year.
