The Oman meeting aimed to "reinforce our view that there can only be a political solution to the conflict in Yemen and that all parties including the Huthi" should participate in the UN-led political process, State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said.

Yemen has been since March 26 under brutal aggression by a Saudi-led coalition. Thousands have been martyred and injured in the attack, with the vast majority of them are civilians.

Riyadh launched the attack on Yemen in a bid to restore power to Yemen’s fugitive president Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi who is a close ally to Saudi Arabia.

However, and despite intensive coalition raids, Yemeni army, backed by popular committees has been engaged in fierce clashes to cleanse several areas across the country from al-Qaeda-linked militants.
