| 2011-06-08 |
| [Yemen Post] Massive demonstrations were held in several Yemeni cities including Saada where the people erupted into the streets to confirm their support to the popular uprising and confirm they will not abandon their strife until the regime was ousted. In Taiz, festivities erupted between gunnies and the army in some parts of the city which has been the scene for deadly battles between the forces and armed people and the protesters. The festivities were reported on the outskirts of Taiz but in downtown the city the situation remained clam, locals said. Some people were killed and injured today, and eyewitnesses said that rustics from Sharab district contend to flood into the city with guns. Also, eyewitnesses said that unidentified gunnies threw a bomb at the ruling party compound in downtown Taiz but there were no casualties. |
