Yemen's warring parties have discussed forming military and security committees to oversee a transition period aimed at ending 14 months of fighting, AFP reported Wednesday (June 15th).
"Discussions continued on security and military issues, including the details of military and security committees," UN special envoy Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed said in a statement.
Peace talks in Kuwait between the two sides have completed their eighth week without any major breakthrough other than the release of some prisoners.
The main sticking point in talks remains the form of the government that would oversee a transition back to normality once a peace deal is reached.
The head of the Houthi delegation Mohammed Abdulsalam told Yemeni media late Tuesday they would reject any deal that does not include their input on the makeup of the transitional body.
This should include agreement on the president, the national unity government and military and security committees, he said.
