Yemen: Al-Murtada says the timing of the release of 600 prisoners shows the strength of the side's holdings initiative.
Abdul Qader al-Murtada, the head of the committee for prisoners' affairs, said that Sana'a sees the enemy prisoners it holds as misguided and Yemenis, and that Sana'a is responsible for all of them. He assured the families of Sana'a prisoners that they would never be abandoned and said that Sana'a holds many significant cards.
