Yemen’s Houthis demand more share on power

Houthi Shias have staged a massive sit-in in Yemen demanding the government’s resignation and a greater share in power.

 

Protests gained momentum despite concessions made by the government earlier.

The Yemeni demonstrators said they would continue protests until their demands are met.

Earlier, Yemeni officials said a presidential delegation offered Shia Houthis a draft proposal on forming a technocrat government, but they had to remove their camps.

There has not yet been any response from Houthis in that regard.

On Wednesday, thousands of Houthi Shias strengthened their positions in the Yemeni capital Sana’a in their efforts to press the Yemeni government to resign.
