Anti-Houthi protesters shout slogans during a demonstration to show support to Yemen’s President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi in the southwestern city of Taiz February 28, 2015. Yemen’s capital Sanaa was captured in September by the Shi’ite Muslim Houthi militia, which placed Hadi under house arrest and forced him to announce his resignation. Arab and Western states this month evacuated their Sanaa embassies. Parliament never approved the resignation, and on Sunday Hadi fled to Aden where he has set up a new seat of power.
