8:09 pm
name is that what did you best continues to exclude them? and so and so they have been open and mobilizing the agents that i lived with in the military and. 9 9 9 associates throughout different groups to, you know, continue putting fuel and the higher between between the courses i'm the military. so i was to spend that hasn't had, you know, a huge part. and i think that lisa, between workforce is how much support does either side the recess and the army have within the general population. so it's why depend, but broadly none of them would have enough support or broad support across the country. but you would see how boy was he will have been trying to capitalize on ethnic and tribe and connections. i. 9 to mobilize and there's some
8:10 pm
support from me and i'm trying to groups, i'm, this is, this has been the basis of the recruitment over the past few months. was out of the work that has been these have been the grouping in the past few months. i have seen all of these indicators and they have done that on video basis to make sure that they brought it to and see i'm a bit expecting support groups. i suppose it could be good if they continue to capitalize and to push me connecticut. is there anyone with enough leverage to mediate between the 2 fighting forces at this stage? absolutely didn't, and i think community has enough leverage in my opinion, both act and then if they needed to get independent in
8:11 pm
any way and i'm not operating on their own in any way, then there was an extension for it and and so on. and within the national community, they think they had on the respective lives of the, of the happen data sets and pushing them to, to, to this total come and to end the fighting and go back to talks. i would definitely go a long way. all right, how many holla fall research or policy analysts? thank you for joining us on the program. thank the warring sides and the conflict in yemen now have released more detainees on the 2nd day of a major prisoner exchange. this is the latest group of who the prisoners arrive in santa, the red cross says more than 800 detainees from both sides of the conflict are due to be released by monday. this is part of a broader diplomatic effort to end of the 9 year conflict. fisher. my macy is
