SAN’A, Yemen — Yemeni security forces on Thursday opened fire on thousands of protesters in the south chanting anti-government slogans, killing 12 and wounding scores of others, medics and eyewitnesses said.
Demonstrations by former army members in southern Yemen demanding political reforms have been occurring regularly since August 2007.
Eyewitnesses said hundreds of security forces opened fire on some 5,000 protesters in Zinjibar to disperse them.
