Waddah al-Debeish, spokesman for the New West Coast liberation operations, told Newsyemen early on Sunday that the meeting was scheduled for Sunday at 11 am aboard the UN ship sailing from khatef area for a tripartite meeting.
An official source in the committee said that the meeting will discuss several points, including: the operation of a joint operations center, activation of the calm mechanism and the agreement on the deployment of observation posts in some of the lines of contact lines to strengthen the ceasefire and reduce escalation.
