UN eyes new Yemen peace talks by end of May

A new round of peace talks between Yemen's warring sides should begin by the end of May, the UN mediator said Wednesday (April 26th).

UN special envoy Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed told AFP that he hoped "to enter into a new round of talks before Ramadan".

The negotiations will likely be held in Geneva or Kuwait.

Countries around the world on Tuesday pledged more than $1 billion to help prevent a looming famine in Yemen at a conference UN chief Antonio Guterres called a "remarkable success".
