'Death to America, Death to Israel," chant Shi'ite rebels protesting at Saudi embassy in Yemen

SANAA - Dozens of armed Yemeni Shi'ite Houthi demonstrators protested in front of the Saudi embassy in Sanaa on Saturday calling for the release of a prominent Shi'ite cleric who was sentenced to death by a Saudi court this week, a Reuters witness said.
The Houthi demonstrators, who were carrying kalashnikov AK-47 rifles, also chanted "Death to America, Death to Israel" slogans.
Yemeni security and military forces blocked both sides of the street in front of the embassy and watched the demonstration.
