Yemen's warring sides resume UN-led peace talks in Kuwait

None

KUWAIT CITY- Yemen's government has resumed talks in Kuwait with Shiite Houthi rebels despite its earlier threats to boycott the process.

 

The state-run Kuwait News Agency, KUNA, reports that the parties participated in the UN-led talks Saturday evening, after a roughly two-week hiatus.

 

Previous peace talks have failed to bridge the gap between the internationally-recognized and Saudi-backed government of exiled President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi and the rebels, who overran the Yemeni capital in late 2014.
