Representatives of the Yemeni government and the Houthis held another round of talks on the UN-sponsored prisoner swap for the 4th day in a row in Jordan’s capital Amman under the supervision of the head of the Red Cross Committee. Abdul Nasser Al-Muwadde’, political analyst, stated that the warring parties submitted a final list of detainees with only 8 thousand names, after verifying an initial one they exchanged in Sweden that had around 15,000 people, adding that many lists were not recognized by the Houthis, claiming that some may be missing, and others are just fake names. Majid Fadayel, Undersecretary of the Yemeni Human Rights Ministry, mentioned that the two sides are holding ongoing talks to verify the names and submit the numbers and locations of the corpses, to add them to the reports and conduct the prisoner swap.
