Two American prisoners held captive by Yemen Houthi rebels have been released and taken to neighboring Oman after Omani officials mediated their release, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Saturday.
Kerry, speaking to reporters in the Swiss city of Lausanne, also said that the United States was discussing a ceasefire in Yemen with Saudi officials.
He suggested he may have more to say on Sunday about ending the violence between Iran-backed Houthis and the Yemen government, which is supported by Gulf states.
