Yemeni snipers shoot protest crowd
Yemeni security forces fired on thousands of anti-government protesters marching to the cabinet building today, killing one and injuring at least 40.
The crowd, demanding the removal of President Ali Abdullah Saleh, were marching from a main square in Sanaa when they came under fire from snipers on rooftops, plainclothes security forces, and soldiers with anti-aircraft guns mounted on pickup trucks.
