Saudi forces shoot to disperse protesters in Aden

ADEN, March 16 (YPA) – The Saudi forces shot fire on Tuesday to disperse angry protesters in front of Ma’asheeq palace, the government headquarters in Aden province, southern Yemen.

Eyewitnesses confirmed that the Saudi troops assigned to guard the palace gate fired shots in the air in an attempt to prevent the storming of the palace.

Angry military and civilian demonstrators stormed the government headquarters after they called on it during the last months to improve living conditions, paying salaries, and providing basic services such as electricity and health in the city.
