As of 21st May 2012 a suicide bomber in army uniform detonated an explosive belt at a military parade rehearsal in Sanaa, killing more than 90 soldiers and wounding at least 200 more. I fear further instability in Yemen which is directly linked to the U.S drone strikes. Yemen is quickly becoming another Pakistan.
