Dozens Killed in Yemen Clashes

HeadlineJun 01, 2011

At least 41 people have been killed in overnight clashes in the Yemeni capital of Sana’a. Witnesses say government forces fired on the headquarters of a brigade linked to the opposition against President Ali Abdullah Saleh. The Yemeni government has also cut electricity and water supplies in Sana’a’s Hassaba neighborhood, home to an influential anti-Saleh tribal leader. Another 12 people were killed in the southern city of Taiz after Saleh’s forces attacked a protest camp in the city center.
