Yemen Revolutionaries Celebrate Eid al-Adha
Islam Times: In 60 Street, in Sana'a, the capital, pro-regime supporters rallied to support Ali Abdullah Saleh in their hundreds of thousands as they chose to celebrate after the Eid prayers.

At "Change Square" revolutionaries listened to Fuad Hameeri a poet whose allegiance lies with the revolution, chanting anti-regime slogans and calling for the "murderers of the Yemeni people" to be brought to justice.

Protesters denounced the electricity black-out and water shortages that several cities in Yemen had to endure for months, urging the international community to intervene in their favor against the regime.

But as anger died down, Yemeni in the Square broke into songs and dance, celebrating one of the most important days in the Muslim calendar.

In Taiz too, despite 3 days of intense shelling hundreds of thousands of protesters defied the Republican guards and the central Security forces taking their demonstration to "Liberty Square", in the heart of the city.
