1 dies in Yemen

Sanaa (Yemen), Feb 19: Yemeni riot police shot dead a protester and injured five others today when they opened fire on thousands marching in the 10th day of unrest rocking the capital Sanaa.
 Protesters began marching early in the morning from the University of Sanaa to the Ministry of Justice while chanting, “the people want the fall of the regime,” until they were met by riot police.    
 Security forces backed by plains clothes elements opened fire on them and threw stones.
