A powerful suicide bombing rocked the Yemeni capital Sanaa today, leaving at least 21 people dead, as it targeted a gathering for supporters of Shiite insurgents, a rebel source said.
Dozens others were wounded in the attack in the city's Al-Tahrir square which came as supporters of rebels who have overrun the capital were preparing to stage a protest, the source said.
An AFP photographer saw the lifeless bodies of four children among the victims, while witnesses spoke of at least 10 dead.
