Yemen - Another failed state adding to the instability of the the middle east.
Sanaa, capital of Yemen fell to which weapons ?
Large parts of Yemen's capital Sanaa have been taken over by Shia rebels in what their leader described as a "successful revolution".Around 200 people were killed in fighting last week between the Houthi insurgents and government forces.Yemen's president Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi has signed a power-sharing agreement with the rebels, who had called for the "corrupt" government to quit.
Rebel leader Abdel Malik al Houthi said the deal had been a victory for "all the people".And he said it could lead to price cuts and economic reforms to ease pressure on Yemen's poorest amid fuel price rises.In a dramatic power shift, the rebels had pushed deep into the capital and control the central bank and several military bases.Mr al Houthi said in a televised speech: "These great efforts created this great success - victory - for all the people, forcing an answer to popular demands.
"If it is implemented, this agreement will also change the government, which the people called to fall, to fail, because it stood on an unjust, non-consensual basis."
