Saudi Arabia has reportedly offered $1 billion to Yemen’s Houthi rebels in exchange for a ceasefire and an end to attacks on the kingdom, according to Israeli newspaper Israel Hayom. The proposal reportedly emerged during talks in Tehran involving Saudi Defence Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman, Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir and Turkish intelligence chief Ibrahim Kalin. Iran offered to mediate between Riyadh and the Houthis amid rising regional tensions. The reported package would support public-sector salaries and civilian infrastructure in Houthi-controlled areas. However, Saudi Arabia has not confirmed the alleged offer or any transfer of funds. (PC: India Today)
