Sniper fire kills Yemeni anti-government demonstrator

Snipers firing from rooftops killed a Yemeni anti-government demonstrator on Tuesday in a city that has seen some of the largest protests against President Ali Abdullah Saleh, witnesses and a medical source said.

 

"A group of youth were rallying on the outskirts of the protest square, but then a sniper opened fire on them, killing Mazen Abdullah and wounding 10 others," said Bushra al-Maktari, a spokeswoman for the protest movement in Taiz, south of Sanaa. (Reuters)
