Mahdi al-Mashat, head of Yemen’s Houthi supreme political council, announced the group’s willingness to engage in peace negotiations with the Yemeni government and the Saudi-led coalition. In a televised address marking the 10th anniversary of the Houthis’ takeover of the capital, Sanaa, al-Mashat outlined key conditions for achieving peace.
“The only solution to achieve peace is through the payment of salaries for Yemenis, the reopening of airports and ports, and the release of all prisoners,” he stated. Additionally, he called for compensation for damages incurred during the conflict and the complete withdrawal of foreign powers from Yemen.
