The UN Special Envoy to Yemen, Hans Grundberg, said he is exploring options with the warring parties for immediate de-escalation measures to reduce violence in Yemen before Islam’s holy month of fasting, Ramadan.
The envoy’s efforts coincide with work to set the priorities of the multi-track political process’s plan, hoping that these consultations will be a “serious and organized start” for talks between Yemenis to end the war.
