Yemeni rivals gather in Kuwait on Monday for UN-brokered peace talks, with parties involved cautiously optimistic despite multiple violations of a one-week-old ceasefire. The negotiations bringing together representatives of the Gulf-backed government and rebels supported by Iran aim to bring an end to 13 months of fighting that have devastated already-impoverished Yemen. UN envoy Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed arrived Sunday in Kuwait, where he spoke of "much tension" still gripping the war-torn country, KUNA news agency reported.
