The President of Sanaa's national negotiating delegation Mohammad Abdul Salam.

The President of Sanaa's national negotiating delegation Mohammad Abdul Salam said that the delegation "held intensive meetings with the Saudi side, during which it discussed some options and alternatives to overcome the [contended issues] that stopped [negotiations] at the previous round," and confirmed that "the delegation will raise them to [Sanaa's] leadership for consultation."

He also praised "the efforts being made by the brothers in the Sultanate of Oman to support peace and end the humanitarian crisis" in Yemen.

Abdul Salam said that these negotiations aim to "help speed up the employees' access to their salary and address the humanitarian situation that the Yemeni people are suffering from," in order to reach a just, comprehensive, and sustainable solution.

For his part, a member of the Political Bureau of the Ansar Allah movement Ali al-Qahoum said that the talks in Riyadh were serious and positive.

He added that the negotiating delegations were optimistic about, "overcoming the stagnation and deadlock in the humanitarian files, and the payment of salaries and humanitarian treatments of priority, to alleviate the suffering of the Yemeni people due to the aggression and blockade."

Al-Qahoum also confirmed that a new round of negotiations will follow this most recent round which lasted for five days following Muscat's request that negotiations ensue.

He pointed out that these "negotiations come within the framework of completing the series of meetings and negotiations that took place in Muscat, Sanaa, and Riyadh," to achieve various Yemeni demands including the withdrawal of occupation forces from the country, as well as the lifting of the blockade imposed by the Saudi-led coalition and the release of prisoners and detainees from both sides.

The Yemeni national delegation and the Omani mediator had returned to the capital Sanaa from Riyadh after a five-day round of negotiations with Saudi Arabia seeking consultation from Sanaa's political leadership.
