Yemen: Saudi Shells Kill 5 Ethiopian Refugees 
----------------------------------------------


 
In Yemen, five Ethiopian refugees were killed when Saudi shells struck
an international aid office in the town of Maydee. Ten other refugees
were wounded. Airstrikes and deadly clashes raged across Yemen Thursday,
a day after the U.N. announced it will convene a meeting of Yemen's
rival factions next week. There were reports of further civilian
casualties during intense Arab bombing, including eight members of a
single family killed in the province of Dhamar.
