Internal
Rebellion
PREDECESSOR:
In
the late 1990s, Yemen's economy was
down, and nearly a third of it's
workforce was jobless. Due to the
economy, President Saleh's government
ended subsidies on flour and wheat and
increased fuel prices by at least 40
percent. These actions provoked
demonstrations in the cities and
violence in the tribal-dominated
countryside.
Yemen
government troops and helicopter
gunships were sent into the mountainous
countryside to crush the unrest. On
July 21, gunmen ambushed a convoy
containing the Interior Minister and
other officials, causing several
casualties including a provincial
governor who suffered gunshot
wounds.
According
to the Associated Press and the Yemen
Times newspaper, casualties include 52
dead and 214 wounded.
None
discerned at this time.
