Saturday 13 September 2014
More Than 100 People Killed in Yemen

Alwaght-More than one hundred protesters were killed in 48 past hours in Yemen.  Due to the airstrikes of Yemeni army and extremists' attacks against Yemeni oppositions, more than 100 Yemenis including some of Ansarullah leaders were killed and their houses were destroyed in the northern part of this country.

A few months ago, the army and extremists clashes with Ansarullah began in Amrān city, a small city in western central Yemen.  It is noteworthy that the extremists and the army have committed a variety of crimes in this city against Ansarullah, they have resisted against their attacks, though.  Consequently, a war was started in this city.  In Amrān war, Ansarullah requested the army to act against extremists.  Surprisingly, army of Yemen did try its best to fight against Ansarullah in order to weaken the resistance of this opposition party.  Accordingly, the clashes among extremists, army, and Ansarullah have been intensified.

Now, there is a same storyline in al-Jouf city, too.  More than half a million population of this city has been witnessed the harsh and furious clashes among extremists, army, and Ansarullah on and off.  Within this week, these clashes have been intensified, too.
