Nearly 200 Yemenis from the country’s various political parties and regions will participate in a conference to be held in Riyadh in the next few days, a Gulf source told local media.

The conference will be held under the auspices of the GCC in attempt to end the impasse following the Houthi takeover of Sanaa, and to agree on a road map to bring back stability.

The source said attempts by UN special adviser Jamal Benomar. The Yemeni delegates will discuss the future of their country without interference from Gulf countries.

Meanwhile, Houthi leaders are divided over transferring the Yemeni national dialogue to Riyadh, Yemeni sources revealed to Al Arabiya News Channel.

While the majority of Houthis object to their participation in the Riyadh talks and reject any change in venue for the talks, a moderate group of Houthi leaders is open to taking part in the talks.
