Sana'a, Yemen- A new round of talks between representatives of
Yemeni authorities and Shiite rebels began in the north-western Yemeni
province of Saada on Monday to revive a fragile ceasefire, a senior
negotiator said.
Ali Abu-Hulaiqa, who heads a Yemeni-Qatari committee entrusted with
enforcing a Qatari-sponsored ceasefire deal, said the committee met
with rebel negotiators to set a new timetable for implementing the
agreement.
"We met their (the rebels) representatives and discussed a weekly
procedural agenda," Abu-Hulaiqa told Deutsche Presse-Agentur dpa by
telephone from Saada, some 230 kilometres north of Sana'a.
