The Saba News Agency, also known as the Yemen News Agency, is the official state news agency of Yemen, founded on 16 November 1970 as the news agency of North Yemen and headquartered in Sana'a. It merged with South Yemen's Aden News Agency in 1990 to form the unified Yemen News Agency Saba and belongs to the Federation of Arab News Agencies, but Yemen's civil conflict has split its operations, with Houthi forces taking control of the agency on 19 January 2015 and rival factions since running competing versions of it.
