A plane transporting released Huthi prisoners takes off from Aden airport towards Sanaa as the three-day exchange of prisoners between cities in Yemen and its oil-rich neighbour, Saudi Arabia begins. Nearly 900 prisoners from Yemen's civil war will be exchanged in the biggest prisoner swap since 2020, after a delegation from Saudi Arabia, which launched a military intervention in 2015, held talks with Yemen's Iran-backed Huthi rebels this week in an attempt to end hostilities.
