SANAA - A new day of protests in Yemen, where clashes with the police find dead two protesters. It 'happened to Aden, the main town in the south of the Arabian Peninsula, the scene this morning of clashes between anti-regime demonstrators on the one hand, and supporters of President Ali Abdullah Saleh and the other police.
The opponents of the regime attempted to assault the town hall in the district of Mansur, setting fire to several cars. In the violence that followed the security forces have killed a young man of 21 years, Mohammed Ali Alwani, as reported by medical sources and then his father. At least three injured.
Later, police sources have reported the death of a second demonstrator: this may be the victim by the police in the same circumstances that caused the death of Alwani, when the agents fired into the air to disperse about 500 people who had gathered in the area of the port of Aden. Other clashes erupted in the capital Sanaa University, where protesters called for the resignation of President Ali Abdallah Saleh, in power for 30 years.
Near the rich, oil Saudi Arabia, Yemen is otherwise poor and burdened with many internal problems. As the presence of a wing of Al Qaeda held responsible for letter bombs sent to the West via cargo and other attacks on regional objectives. But more than that the fight against terrorism, the regime of President Ali Abdullah Saleh is the most important on the domestic front, the search for an understanding with the Shi'ite rebellion that inflames the north of the country and at the same time quell separatists in the seeds south.
The popular revolts in North Africa have fanned the fire that was smoldering under the ashes of Yemen. Ali Abdullah Saleh, a U.S. ally in the fight against Al Qaeda, tried to calm the protests by announcing his departure from the scene in 2013, at the end of the current presidential term, but it was not enough.
And today accused foreign powers of fomenting obscure protest in Yemen, in their "agendas" plans to bring "chaos and violence in the region. To attempt to "security and stability of our countries," said Saleh, who had a telephone conversation on the subject with the Sunni king of Bahrain, also grappling with the protest of the Shiite majority, which the Yemeni president expressed his support, as reported by national news agency.
