Security forces fire in Yemen, wounding marchers
None
Yemeni security forces opened fire on Monday to block a thousands-strong protest and wounded at least 10 people, amid uncertainty over a Gulf plan for President Ali Abdullah Saleh to step down within weeks and end a political standoff.
Witnesses said security men opened fire to stop protesters from marching through the city of Taiz, south of the capital, to join a pro-democracy rally via a route that would take them past a palace belonging to Saleh. (Reuters)
