"The PM will take the opportunity to discuss important regional issues with the Crown Prince including the need for the de-escalation of tensions in the Gulf and for all sides to back the process to end the conflict in Yemen," the spokeswoman told reporters, adding that May would raise the case of the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
