At least two people were shot dead yesterday when Yemeni troops tried to break up a demonstration by teachers in Taez, south of the capital Sanaa, officials and a medical source said.
Thousands of teachers were staging a sit-down demonstration outside the regional ministry of education offices in Taez demanding better pay and the postponement of final school exams, protest organisers said.
"Two injured people died and four others were in serious condition at the intensive care unit," a medical source told AFP.
