At least 10 shot at huge protests in Yemen http://english.iribnews.ir/NewsBody.aspx?ID=13570

Yemeni security forces loyal to dictator Ali Abdullah Saleh shot and wounded at least 10 people as they opened fire to disperse huge protests by anti-regime demonstrators south of Sanaa on Monday, witnesses said.Hundreds of thousands gathered in the flashpoint city of Taez to pressure embattled dictator Ali Abdullah Saleh to step down immediately despite a US-backed Persian Gulf plan for a transition, they said.Security forces opened fire with live rounds and tear gas at the Taez demonstrators, wounding three and leaving dozens of others suffering from breathing problems.The protesters, who have been demonstrating across Yemen since late January, rallied against a Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (PGCC) plan under which Saleh would quit in 30 days."No rest, no respite for the executioner," they shouted.
