SANAA, Dec. 4 (Xinhua) -- Yemen's Houthi rebel negotiators accompanied by visiting UN Special Envoy to Yemen, Martin Griffiths, left rebel-held capital Sanaa for Stockholm on Tuesday on a Kuwaiti plane to attend upcoming peace talks, a Xinhua photographer at the airport witnessed.
Griffiths arrived in Sanaa a day earlier in a brief stop, during which he met rebel leaders, including Head of Houthi Higher Revolutionary Committee, Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, according to a statement by al-Houthi office.
The apparent breakthrough came a day after the Saudi-led coalition allowed the evacuation of 50 wounded rebels from Sanaa to Oman on a UN-chartered plane for medical treatment.
