United Nations (UN) Special Envoy to Yemen Hans Grundberg said in a press release on Thursday that he participated in a mediation retreat in Muscat this week, hosted by Oman, suggesting the possibility of resuming peace talks between the Yemeni warring parties.



According to the statement, the discussions focused on recent developments in Yemen and the wider region, and stressed the need for closer coordination of regional efforts in support of Yemen's political process.



A source in the UN Yemen envoy's office based in Jordan told Xinhua on condition of anonymity that new proposals were put forward during Grundberg's visit, including the reopening and operation of Sanaa airport and Hodeidah port, both under Houthi control.
