Yemenis call for purges of ex-leader's loyalists
None
Tens of thousands of Yemenis have taken to the streets to demand that members of the country's former regime be purged from top military posts.
Rallies organized by youth groups were held Thursday in the capital Sanaa and several other cities. Some protesters carried banners urging Yemen's new president, Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, to "purge the army of family members" of his predecessor, Ali Abdullah Saleh. (AP)
