Yemen

Two people were killed and 16 others were wounded in clashes between security forces and demonstrators in the southern Yemeni port city of Aden. Security forces fired on the crowd, deployed tear gas, and arrested 11. Tens of thousands had gathered calling for reconciliation between former Southern factions that fought on Jan. 13, 1986. Yemen’s northern-dominated ruling party said the incident was “fabricated.”
