A Rebel Takeover - 23 Jan 2015 
Yemen has drifted deeper into political limbo after President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi resigned in exasperation at a Houthi rebel takeover of the country.

His resignation startled the Arabian Peninsula country of 25 million, where the Houthis emerged as the dominant faction by seizing Sanaa in September.

Hadi, a former general, blamed the Houthis' control of the capital Sanaa for impeding his attempt to steer Yemen toward stability after years of turmoil and tribal unrest, deepening poverty and U.S. drone strikes on Islamist militants.

A poster of Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi, founder of the Shi'ite Houthi movement, hangs from on a monitoring post at the presidential palace in Sanaa January 22, 2015. A senior official of Yemen's Houthi movement said on Thursday that a statement by President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi aimed at defusing a political crisis was acceptable because it confirmed the terms of a power-sharing agreement signed in September. Witnesses said Houthi fighters remained in position outside the presidential palace and Hadi's private residence, where the head of state actually lives. Hadi in his statement said the Houthis had agreed to remove their men from those places. REUTERS/Khaled Abdullah (YEMEN - Tags: CIVIL UNREST POLITICS MILITARY)
