也門反政府武裝保證參加和談

Delegations from Yemen's Houthi rebels and their allies now say they will join U.N.-brokered peace talks in Kuwait, after staying home to protest alleged cease-fire violations by pro-government forces.

Representatives from both the Houthis and the party of former President Ali Abdullah Saleh said they planned to arrive in Kuwait Wednesday or Thursday.

The United Nations tried to launch the negotiations on Monday, but officially postponed the talks when only the government delegation showed up.

After announcing the delay, U.N. envoy Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed thanked the government "for its commitment" and said he hopes the Houthis do not miss the opportunity to put an end to the violence in Yemen.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged all parties to negotiate in good faith and to begin the talks without delay.

The conflict has killed more than 6,400 people and created a humanitarian disaster in Yemen.也門胡塞反政府武裝及其盟友的代表們表示，將參加經聯合國斡旋在科威特舉行的和平談判。此前他們抵制和談，以抗議據稱親政府軍違反停火協議的行爲。

胡塞反政府武裝和也門前總統薩利赫所在政黨的代表說，他們計劃於星期三或星期四抵達科威特。

聯合國曾爭取星期一啓動和談，但由於只有也門政府代表團到場，只好決定推遲和談。

宣佈推遲和談後，聯合國特使艾哈邁德感謝也門政府致力於和談，同時表示希望胡塞反政府武裝不要錯過結束也門暴力衝突的機會。

聯合國祕書長潘基文敦促有關各方本着善意進行談判，不要推遲和談進程。

也門衝突已導致6400多人喪生，造成了一場人道災難。
