Yemen rebels say completed withdrawal from Saudi land

DUBAI Jan 26 (Reuters) - Yemen Shi'ite rebels said on Tuesday they had withdrawn completely from Saudi territory as part of truce offer extended to the world's top oil exporter, with whom they have clashed along the Yemen-Saudi border.

"There has been a complete withdrawal from all Saudi positions and territory," the office of rebel leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi said in a statement posted on a rebel web site.

The leader of Yemen's Shi'ite rebels offered a ceasefire to Saudi Arabia on Monday, and said his fighters would withdraw from the kingdom's territory to avoid more civilian casualties. (Writing by Cynthia Johnston)
