Yemen : Who controls the state?




Inside Story show

Summary: Like elsewhere in the Middle East, post-revolutionary Yemen is in trouble. Years of instability created a power vacuum that has been filled with groups trying to overthrow the government. Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) remains a major threat. The US considers it the group's most dangerous offshoot. But it is Shia Houthi rebels who are really wielding power.
