Saudi Arabia accuses Iran of arming Yemen’s Shia Houthi group which has seized control of Yemeni capital Sanaa in late 2014.
In March 2015 Saudi Arabia and its Arab allies began an extensive air campaign aimed at reversing Houthi gains in Yemen and restoring the government of President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi.
On Monday Hadi – during a meeting in Riyadh with representatives of the permanent UN Security Council members -- accused Iran of interfering in Yemen’s internal affairs.
According to the UN more than 5800 people have been killed in Yemen -- about half of them civilians -- since the Saudi-led coalition first began its air campaign in March of last year.
