Saleh Gives Campaign Funds to Lebanese
2006-08-05
Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh has donated $5 million collected for his election campaign to help Lebanese and Palestinians facing Israeli onslaughts. Saleh, who is virtually certain to win the Sept. 20 polls, has donated one billion Yemeni rials ($5.6 million) collected by Yemeni businessmen to fund his campaign, Yehya Mohammad Saleh, who heads two solidarity associations for the Lebanese and Palestinian peoples, told reporters.

The two associations have since Saturday been raising funds to help Lebanese and Palestinians reeling under Israeli offensives. Around half a million dollars were donated on Thursday by Yemeni businessmen.
