Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

What recent assessment he has made of the prospects for an end to the conflict in Yemen.

The UK fully supports the efforts of UN Special Envoy Martin Griffiths to resolve the Yemen conflict. I spoke to Martin Griffiths on Monday. He is seeking to secure a ceasefire and the resumption of a comprehensive political process. This comes as the Houthi offensive on Marib threatens these efforts and to displace thousands of civilians.

We are using all our diplomatic and humanitarian expertise to move the peace process forward alongside the UN, the US and our international partners.
