Saudi-led coalition calls on UAE-backed separatists to return to Riyadh deal

RIYADH (Agencies): A Saudi Arabia coalition that has been attacking Yemen since 2015 has called on Emirati-backed separatists that used to ally themselves with the invading force to return to a so-called de-confliction deal after they declared “self-rule” in the impoverished country’s south.

The coalition made the demand of the so-called Southern Transitional Cou-ncil on Monday, the Saudi Press Agency reported.

Reacting to the development on Monday, the Emirati foreign minister said Abu Dhabi was opposed to the separatists’ decision, Reuters reported.

Anwar Gargash said the the announcement had been a unilateral move and called for the enforcement of the agreement signed with the Saudi-backed militants.
