YEMENI AL-HOUTHI-HELD SAUDI SOLDIER FREED

SAADA, Feb. 15 (Saba)- The Houthi rebels had handed over a soldier of five Saudi troops who went missing after the Saudi army launched attack against the Houthi militants to one of the committees overseeing the implementation of the peace deal between the government and the insurgents.

The hand over came amid the rebel demonstration of their commitment to the ceasefire announced on Thursday that ended a six-year war between them and the army in the far north.

The rebels have already started implementing the ceasefire terms reopening roads, eliminating lands and withdrawing from their positions.
