Al-Jaber is heading a Saudi delegation currently visiting Sanaa for talks with the Houthi leadership on renewing a broad truce agreement and starting discussions to reach peace in Yemen.
The Houthi-run Saba news agency reported that the Saudi and Omani delegations arrived in the Yemeni capital Sanaa late on Saturday, where they met with the head of the political bureau of the Ansar Allah Houthi group, Mahdi Mohammed Al-Mashat, at the presidential palace in Sanaa.
The agency quoted Al-Mashat as grateful for the mediation efforts carried out by the Sultanate of Oman to bring views closer and achieve peace, and quoted the head of the Saudi delegation as appreciating the role of the Sultanate of Oman and its keenness to support peace and stability in Yemen.
