A security committee chaired by Yemeni President Abdrabuh Mansur Hadi decreed a curfew Saturday in four districts of the capital where deadly fighting has raged this week between Shiite rebels and government forces.
The overnight curfew, from 9:00 pm to 6:00 am (1800-0300 GMT), will apply in the northwestern districts of Shamlan, Al-Madhbah, Thabat and Balaa, the committee said.
