1. (S/NF) Post EAC convened on April 27 at 2:30 P.M. to
review reverse tripwires for Authorized Depature status (per
reftel C). Key offices and personnel represented at the
meeting included: AMB, DCM, DAT, FPD, IPC, MO, LEGATT, POLE,
RMAS, OMC, RSO, CONS, PD and USAID. Members of the EAC
unanimously agreed that all tripwires specified in reftel C
are applicable. EAC members also reviewed the text of a
draft message regarding the discontinuation of authorized
departure status.


2. (S/NF) Discussing other concerns, the Ambassador noted a
report from MOI detailing the recent arrest of an individual
associated with Al-Houthi who reportedly stayed in a hotel
near the Embassy. RSO discussed a recent grenade attack near
the Sana'a Customs Authority, explaining that the reports
available have been very inconsistent regarding the intent
and target of the attack.
