Pro Saleh Gunmen Close Down Sana'a Airport
[Yemen Post]  A security official in Sana'a International Airport told Yemen Post that gunnies loyal to Mohammed Saleh, ousted commander of the air force, forced themselves inside the airport and closed it down.The official said the gunnies were numbered in the dozens and said they were loyal to Saleh. A security official expected the gunnies to evacuate the airport within hours saying they wanted to send a message and not occupy the airport. President Hadi issued a decree earlier this month releasing Saleh from his post, but he rejected the decree and insists in staying in power. It is worth mentioning that Mohammed Saleh is the brother of ousted Yemen president President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh ... Saleh initially took power as a strongman of North Yemen in 1977, when disco was in flower, but he didn't invite Donna Summer to the inauguration and Blondie couldn't make it... , who left power in a international backed power transfer deal granting him complete immunity.
