Yemen bomb leads to clashes with Shia fighters - 3 May 2008

Al Jazeera's Hashem Ahelbarra reports on the government troops reported to have clashed with Shia fighters in northern Yemen, hours after a mosque was bombed. Funerals are being held for the 18 worshippers killed, who included soldiers from a nearby barracks. The attack in Sa'ada adds to the thousands already killed in a four year conflict. It also throws into a doubt a peace deal revived earlier this year.
