The Saudi Ambassador to Yemen Mohammad Al-Hamadan returned on Friday to Yemen after four months of leaving the state.
Sources of the Saudi embassy to Yemen expected that the crisis resulted by the abduction of a Saudi ambassador to Yemen, Abdullah Al-Khalidi, will be ended.
Al-Khalidi was abducted by Al-Qaeda in March 28 from the port city in Aden. Al-Qaeda claimed responsibility about the abduction and posted a video massage for the diplomat.
A Yemeni diplomat Abdul-Rahaman Al-Sharabi had said the resumption of work in the Saudi embassy was contingent on Al-Khalidi, but Yemeni political sources said that the closure of the embassy resulted by fears of demonstrations before the embassy. The closure of the embassy paralyzed most Yemen tourist agencies, particularly those working in umra and pilgrimage services.
Tens of thousands of Yemenis who working in Saudi Arabia and those who visit Saudi Arabi to perform Umara and pilgrimage were deprived from entering this year.
Yemenis organized several rallies in the capital Sana'a last week, calling for reopening the Saudi embassy.
The protesters who carried pictures of Yemen and Saudi's leaders as well as banners condemning abducting the Saudi diplomat appealed to Abdulaziz and Hadi to reopen the embassy after months of closure.
They demanded the embassy to resume its duties and issue visas and allow the Hajj and Umra seekers to practice their religious obligations.
Al-Khalidi was abducted by gunmen affiliated to the terror network of al-Qaeda from nearby his residence in Aden. Several mediations aiming to release al-Kaledi failed so far.
