The death toll of protestors seem to be increasing in Yemen as civilians push their leader Ali Abdullah Saleh to step down from his powers. His hesitance and unwillingness has caused intense uprisings and the deaths of many civilians. Saleh had been in Saudi Arabia for the past 3 months, recovering from an assassination attempt. He has agreed to hand down his powers only to an election.
Many individuals are worried that if Saleh continues to embrace his powers, the country could soon enough fall into a civil war. Once he returned from Saudi, he insisted that the fighting ends and for stability to return. However, how things will play out for the people of Yemen and how long it will take for Saleh to step down remains cloudy.
