FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda The scholars said the upcoming presidential election, due to be held on February 21, will prevent a possible civil war and pave the way for unity in the post-Saleh era.

Yemeni ruler Ali Abdullah Saleh formally transferred power to his deputy Abdrabuh Mansour Hadi in November under a deal brokered by the [Persian] Gulf Cooperation Council.
Meanwhile, tens of thousands of Yemenis have taken to the streets of several Yemeni cities, calling for trial of Saleh over the killing of hundreds of protesters.
