| Subject: Yemeni troops murder at least five anti-government protesters Sat Sep 24, 2011 12:27 am | |
| Troops loyal to Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh killed at least five anti-government protesters early on Saturday, hours after their leader called for peace following his surprise to the country. Saleh returned on Friday after a three-month absence in Saudi Arabia recovering from injuries sustained during an attack on his palace on June 3 "carrying the dove of peace and an olive branch".
Hours later however, members of the elite Republican Guard led by his eldest son Ahmed were fighting dissident troops protecting anti-government protesters in the north of the capital Sanaa. Saleh arrived in the city on Friday during a sixth straight day of deadly clashes between troops loyal to him and heavily armed opponents. But even as 69-year-old Saleh called for a ceasefire and talks, Washington urged the veteran president to step down.
