Houthi rebels released a dozen United Nations international staffers Wednesday and allowed three others to move freely within the U.N. compound after detaining them in the facility in Yemen's capital over the weekend, according to the world body.
The 12 international staffers departed Sanaa on a U.N. humanitarian flight, with some relocating to Jordan to continue their work there. More than 50 U.N. staffers are still detained by the Houthis as well as other non-government and civil society personnel from various diplomatic missions.
