The Houthi Group has given back all military vehicles seized during the war against the rebellion in Saada to the Qatari panel supervising the implementation of the ceasefire between the government and the group, spokesman for the group said on Sunday.

The handover came after the authorities released last week 427 Houthi detainees through the panel.

Spokesman Muhammad Abdul Salam said we handed today 11 military vehicles to Qataris and governmental representatives in Al-Malaheez district, as the Qatari mediation continues to prove a success.

Earlier we handed 10 vehicles in Harf Sufyan district, Amran, and 21 vehicles in Saada, he said.

"With the handover of the vehicles, the Houthi Group has implemented one of the terms of the ceasefire reached in February last year and which ended a six-year war in the far north".

"Furthermore, we have already eliminated all checkpoints in various areas and the Qatari panel has made sure of that. The panel has also visited Yemeni areas on the border with Saudi Arabia and was briefed on steps taken in the last days," added the spokesman.

The government and the Houthi Group sent in August 2010 two delegations to Doha, where they agreed to continue the ceasefire under Qatar's supervision.

Commenting on the moves of both, Qatar said on Sunday it was glad the government had released Houthis and the group returned vehicles.

Qatari Prime Minister Hamad bin Jassim said "Qatar thanks the government and the Houthi Group for their commitment to implementing the ceasefire and is ready to continue its effort to help establish peace in northern Yemen".
