MUSCAT - SABA
Yemen's governmental delegation participated in the Omani capital today in a new round of negotiations on the exchange of prisoners with the terrorist Houthi militia who also hold civilian hostages in jails.

The head of the delegation Brig. Gen. Yahya Kazman confirmed that the Presidential Leadership Council and the government are handling this prisoner and hostage dossier with all responsibility, commitment and seriousness to secure the release everyone on an "all-for-all" principle.

He said the political leadership believes the participation in this round might constitute a good opportunity to stop these violations and exploit the presence of regional and international mediators present in order to immediately stop these grave violations and achieve the release of the hostages recently kidnapped by the Houthis, and long kidnapped politician professor Muhammad Qahtan.
