Many people have been killed in clashes in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, as protests continue against President Ali Abdullah Saleh.
Demonstrators camped out on Change Square - the focus of protests - have been caught in fighting between the army and dissident soldiers, a journalist in the city told the BBC.Some unconfirmed reports say as many as 40 people have died across the city.
The violence follows Mr Saleh's return from three months in Saudi Arabia.
He received treatment there following an assassination attempt. Correspondents say his return raises the risk of all-out civil war.
Clashes in Sanaa have recently intensified as elite Republican Guards, led by President Saleh's son Ahmed, fight running battles with army units that have defected to the opposition and tribal fighters who support the protesters.
