Report: Crown Prince Wants End of Yemen War


Saudi Arabia’s crown prince has reportedly told two former U-S officials that he wants to end the war on Yemen, which has taken the lives of over 12-thousand Yemenis since 2015.

Middle East Eye says it has obtained emails that show Mohammed bin Salman discussed the issue with a former U-S ambassador to Israel and ex-U-S national security adviser Steven Hadley. In the emails, Prince Mohammed also said he was not opposed to U-S rapprochement with Iran. The conversation took place in May, a month before a Saudi-led group of countries cut ties with Qatar, accusing it of trying to undermine the war on Yemen and for having friendly relations with Iran. The 31-year-old heir to the Saudi throne, who oversees the deadly aggression, has at times accused Tehran of destabilizing the region.
