Houthi rebels (via cnn.com)
Good morning! Here’s what you missed while enjoying the beginning of spring this past weekend:
The lead story: A civil war may erupt in Yemen as Houthi rebels seize an airport. The rebels are Shiite Muslims in a predominately Sunni country and have been responsible for fomenting violence in the country, including helping to remove the Yemeni president from office in January. The United Nations Security Council has backed President Abdu Rabu Mansour Hadi though it warns of civil war. There are also concerns that al-Qaeda or ISIS may take advantage of the situation. The U.S. removed its troops from the country over the weekend.
Coming up: Starbucks and race, a state funeral for Richard III, oil prices, and developments in Ukraine.
