                                               porters staged a massive sit-in
                                               right in front of the government
                                               offices. Tensions escalated and
                                               fierce fighting broke out. The
                                               Houthis then stormed the govern-

                                               Houthis that had seized the presi-
                                               dential palace and the capital first
                                               forced the government, and later
                                               on President Abd Rabbuh Man-
                                               sour Hadi, to resign. Tens of thou-
                                               sands of people then took to the
                                               streets from all parts of the coun-

                                               prime minister and president of a
                                               country by force will obviously
                                               threaten and impair the unity and
                                               integrity of that nation. What is

                                               to considerable loss of stability and
                                               security and in that sense to the

                                               point. These incidents in Yemen,
                                               which is in the process of a politi-
