UN Chief Antonio Guterres to attend last day of talks between Yemen's government and Huthi rebels

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres will attend the last day of talks between Yemen's government and Huthi rebels in Sweden tomorrow. In a statement, the world body said, Mr Guterres, will participate in UN-brokered negotiations between these warring Yemeni parties in the rural village of Rimbo, north of Stockholm.

The talks aim to broker deals on major issues between the Huthi rebels and



the government of President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi. The present government is allied with a powerful military coalition led by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. 

The war has triggered what the UN calls the world's worst humanitarian crisis, with 14 million people facing imminent starvation and one child dies every 10 minutes from preventable causes.
