United Nations: United Nations-brokered talks designed to return peace to war-torn Yemen have been postponed, a UN official said, just four days before they were due to begin in Geneva. “I can confirm that the meeting has been postponed,” the official said, without providing further explanation, amid uncertainty over who would attend.
On Saturday, Yemeni President Abdrabuh Mansur Hadi laid out his exiled government’s demands to attend the conference, including the withdrawal of Shia rebels from territory they have seized.
