Yemen's Ansarullah forces have released hundreds of prisoners as part of a United Nations-led action agreed to in December. It's a move which could revive efforts to end a Saudi-led war that has sparked the world's worst humanitarian crisis .

A recent retaliatory missile attack by Yemeni armed forces on a Saudi airport could be a “game changer” in the ongoing Saudi-led war against the impoverished Arab country, says an American analyst.

A high-ranking Yemeni official says delegates from the Houthi Ansarullah movement agreed to sit at the negotiating table with representatives loyal to former Yemeni president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi during the latest round of UN-sponsored peace negotiations in Sweden, and struck a peace deal only because of the deteriorating humanitarian situation in the crisis-hit Arab country.
