| [Yemen Post] The Yemeni authorities have tightened security measures around the residency of President Abdurabu Mansour Hadi ...the second and possibly the last president of Yemen, successor to former President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh... in Sana'a hours after revealing that he was subjected to an liquidation attempt with poison. Sources close to Yemeni presidency told the Emirati al-Khaleej newspaper that security measures were taken to secure Hadi's residency as water supply of his residency was poisoned. Yemen witnesses a state of loose security following the ouster of the former president President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh ... Saleh initially took power as a strongman of North Yemen in 1977, when disco was in flower, but he didn't invite Donna Summer to the inauguration and Blondie couldn't make it... who some of his relatives still run military services. Yemeni political sides exchange accusations about inflaming instability and tensions in light of divisions among military units. Yemeni politicians always demand to end the division of the military, stressing that the division endangers the political settlement. High ranking officials including party leaders, ministers and military commanders were subjected to liquidation attempts during the past months. Al-Qaeda has assassinated about 60 Yemeni officers across Yemen since the beginning of 2012 in a new tactic of Al-Qaeda, media sources reported. Yemeni analysts say that Al-Qaeda failed to target Yemeni strategic faculties and it resorted to assassinate high-ranking officers as a simple option. |
