The military leader of the in Al-Maslob district, Major Abdallah Hammod Al-Arefy said that about 500 rustics of Nawas tribe laid a siege to the camp six days ago. Al-Arefy said that they are under siege, suffering difficulties without water or food, through the insisting of the rustics to free one of their clansmen, who was seized in the headquarters of Central Security in Sana'a, after killing a soldier in the same camp. According to media outlets, Al-Arefy called on Yemeni authorities to intervene as quickly as they can to end the siege, before they all die. |

| #2 pretty simple, really. If they won't withdraw, stand him up on the wall and blow his head off His presence is probably all that kept them from being completely overrun in the first place, Frank. Once he's dead, they'll have no hostage for even bad behaviour. So best to wait until relief has arrived and a meal eaten before killing him. |
