The Arab Coalition announced Wednesday that military observers have arrived in Yemen’s Abyan governorate to oversee the implementation of a comprehensive ceasefire.
The Coalition said Monday that Yemen's legitimate government and the Southern Transitional Council (STC) have agreed to begin talks in Saudi Arabia on implementing the Riyadh Agreement.
In light of the recent developments in Socotra and Abyan, the Coalition welcomed the response of the legitimacy and the STC on its request for a comprehensive ceasefire, de-escalation and a meeting to be convened in the Kingdom to move forward in implementing the Riyadh Agreement involving committees from both sides.
The Coalition regretted the recent developments in a number of southern governorates in Yemen, and called on all parties to prioritize the country’s national interest.
It also called for ending the bloodshed through implementing the Riyadh Agreement, normalizing the situation in Socotra, implementing a ceasefire in Abyan and avoiding escalations in all Yemeni governorates.
