German hostages found

Yemeni authorities have located a German couple and their three children who have been held hostage in Yemen by unidentified kidnappers since June, German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said yesterday.

"I have learned from my conversation with the president that two hours ago the location of the hostages has become known," Westerwelle said after talks with President Ali Abdullah Saleh in Sana'a.
