The Saudi Arabia-led coalition released more than 240 Houthi prisoners in exchange for the release of two US citizens and the return of the bodily remains of a third American held by the Yemeni rebels.
Humanitarian worker Sandra Loli and businessman Mikael Gidada were released to the United States following negotiations involving Saudi officials. The remains of Bilal Fateen, a dual US-Yemeni citizen who died in Houthi captivity, were also returned.
