BashaReport

Yemen's internationally recognized government and the Houthi group signed a prisoner exchange agreement in Amman on May 14, covering more than 1,600 detainees — the largest such deal since the conflict began over a decade ago.

Yemen's internationally recognized government and the Houthi group signed a prisoner exchange agreement in Amman on May 14, covering more than 1,600 detainees — the largest such deal since the conflict began over a decade ago.

Under the agreement, the Houthis will release 580 prisoners — including seven Saudis and 20 Sudanese — while the Yemeni government will free 1,100 Houthi detainees. The deal also covers coalition personnel, security forces members, politicians and journalists.

The International Committee of the Red Cross will serve as a neutral intermediary in implementing the exchange, requiring unhindered access to all detainees to conduct private interviews and confirm each individual's voluntary consent before release.

The deal follows 14 weeks of negotiations in Amman and stems from an agreement reached in December 2025 during UN-facilitated consultations in Muscat, Oman. The last major detainee swap between the two sides took place in 2023, involving around 900 prisoners.

The Houthi group's acting foreign minister warned Wednesday that renewed attacks on Iran would drag the region into a wider conflict with serious repercussions for the global economy and energy markets, urging a diplomatic solution.

A USAID inspector general report revealed that Houthi forces seized more than $122,000 worth of US-funded equipment in 2025 after the Trump administration abruptly terminated humanitarian aid contracts for Yemen, leaving partner organizations without guidance on asset disposal.
