Yemen president promises to crush northern revolt
Separatists in south Yemen used the anniversary of an uprising against colonial power Britain to press their claim for independence on Wednesday, while President Ali Abdullah Saleh promised to crush rebels in the north.
Veteran ruler Saleh is facing two challenges to his rule from Zaidi Shi'ite Muslims in the north who have been in rebellion against central authority since 2004 and southerners of the former South Yemen. (Reuters)
