The leader of Yemen’s separatists is heading to Riyadh on Tuesday for talks, a Yemeni official told AFP, after days of fighting with pro-Saudi rivals.
The Saudi-organised talks indicate the beginning of de-escalation efforts after the clashes in Yemen’s government-run areas that exposed a rift. “A large delegation headed by the president of the Southern Transitional Council, Aidaros Alzubidi, will travel to Riyadh at the official invitation of Saudi Defence Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman,” the STC official said, requesting anonymity to discuss sensitive matters.
Alzubidi will also “discuss the southern dialogue sponsored by Riyadh”, the official said.
