Yemen leader readies for talks after 'coup' warnings

The powerful militia, k**wn as Huthis, seized almost full control of the capital Sanaa in September and have fought pitched battles with government forces this week as they press for more political power. The unrest has raised deep international concern, with the UN Security Council condemning the attacks and backing Hadi as Yemen's "legitimate authority". After an emergency meeting in Riyadh on Wednesday, foreign ministers from the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council accused the Huthis of an attempted "coup" and expressed support for Hadi.
