The warring sides in #Yemen's long conflict have agreed to exchange 1,081 prisoners, the #UN mediator said on Sunday following talks in Switzerland.
Martin Griffiths hailed the decision to release the prisoners as the largest such operation during Yemen's #conflict. He also congratulated the government and the Houthis for renewing their "commitment to the full implementation of the Stockholm agreement".
