Arab League Chief Condemns 'Criminal' Huthis for 'Assassinating' Yemen's Saleh

Arab League chief Ahmed Abul Gheit on Tuesday condemned the killing of former Yemeni president Ali Abdullah Saleh by Huthi rebels, saying it illustrated their "criminal nature".

The head of the pan-Arab bloc warned that Saleh's killing as he fled the Yemeni capital on Monday following the collapse of his uneasy alliance with the rebels threatens an "explosion in the security situation" in the war-ravaged country.
