Crisis in Yemen take a new look as Houthis fighter told the president to Appoint VP from their group

Shia Houthi fighters in Yemen are pressing President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi to appoint a vice president from their group.

The development comes as the Houthi fighters, after taking over the presidential palace in Sanaa following months of political unrest, demand that Hadi implement a power-sharing deal.

The fighters battled guards at Hadi’s home in Sanaa and entered his palace on Tuesday.
