Where is the fucking UN? Oh no - the Yemen government is pro-Western.

Unidentified gunmen firing on an anti-government rally in the Yemeni capital Sanaa have killed at least 45 people and injured 270, doctors told the BBC.

The gunmen fired from rooftops overlooking the central square in what the opposition called a massacre.

President Ali Abdullah Saleh declared a national state of emergency but denied his forces were behind the shooting.

US President Barack Obama has condemned the violence, urging Mr Saleh to allow peaceful protests.

In a statement, he said those responsible for Friday's violence "must be held accountable".
