UN says international staff held by Yemen's Huthis 'free to move' in compound
The UN says that its international staff held by Yemen's Huthi rebels in a raid on its Sanaa compound are now free to move inside and all five national staff have been freed. On Saturday, the United Nations office in Yemen said Huthi security forces had made an "unauthorised entry" into its compound in the city. "All 15 UN international staff are now free to move inside the UN compound in Sanaa and are in contact with their respective UN entities and families," says Stephane Dujarric, spokesperson for the United Nations Secretary-General.
